Homeless signs have been a font of ideas for creatives, but rarely has the focus been on the fonts themselves.
The Arrels Foundation in Barcelona has created Homelessfonts—typefaces based on the unique handwriting of the homeless people it helps. Each font comes with the story of the person who penned it and their personality. After all, few things are more personal than our handwriting.
The work not only helps fund the foundation, it humanizes the homeless and lets people see them as unique individuals, not as an amorphous problem.
