Welcome to BangkokType — a little space where I share my love for the unique and vibrant typography found all across Bangkok.

Exploring the beauty of Bangkok, one sign at a time.


This one is too good not to share. Although it’s not from Bangkok, I came across this amazing storefront sign during a recent trip to Hat Yai, a southern Thai city rich in Thai, Malay, and Chinese influences. I’m not exactly sure what the shop sells (Google Translate didn’t help much!), but the Chinese characters say “Great Wall,” which I assume is the shop’s name. Just look at the Thai script so beautifully designed, sitting perfectly alongside the traditional Chinese type. It’s such a cool example of cultural blend through typography.
