The Kundiman is a traditional means of serenade in the Philippines. Imbued with dramatic intervals and a flowing rhythmic melody, Kundiman love songs are riddled with passion, and as such became our source of inspiration in creating our custom font "Kundiman Display."

Taking cues from this beautiful genre of Filipino love songs, our custom display typeface is characterized by romantic swashes, ornamentality, and graceful intricacies. We envisioned our work to serve as a love letter to the Philippines — an expression of hope and desire for a country that deserves more.
