Social Network for Typography
Concept, Design, Project management, Social Marketing
Typography is an obsession- for trained eyes and for thosewho generally like pretty things. Fontli is a network designed for them; for discovering, capturing and sharing beautiful typography around the world while they are on the move. Designed primarily as a mobile application, Fontli lets usersto quickly take a snapshot and post it to their public feed. They can also request others to help them find which font is used in the captured image. By linking up with the extensive catalogue of Myfonts.com, users can search, tag and preview fonts on the posts. Other social features include liking,recommendations, comments, hashtags, notifications, favourite fonts and push notifications.
The design also explores the possibility of extending conventional iOS mobile interactions to marry the paradigms introduced by Windows Phone Metro UI and Android. 

Being a unique and well executed idea, we have received warm welcome within the design community. As a project under the incubation cell at Pramati technologies, I have conceived, designed and managed the project. Development for a web version and Windows Phone application is underway.
The web version aims to provide rich browsing experience across larger screens by enabling content discovery and network building.
The Windows Phone App has a whole new UI, making use of the power of Metro Interface.
