I hail from Kerala, Malayalam is the native language of my state.
Through this project I wanted to design,
something which is different from its complex rounded forms!
That’s how I came up with Videshi. It means foreigner in Malayalam,
the form of the font is more geometric and structured compared to
the existing Malayalam fonts which are more of round shape.
Hence it is a foreigner to the existing Malayalam fonts.

This font is more like an artwork, and not like an actual font that can be practically used as an alternative to Malayalam fonts that are currently being used. Feels "less readable" compared to the ones we see as commonly used. Appreciate the effort as it might have taken some time to get through all these characters.
