TYPEFACE NARRATIVE:
HISTOLOGY REPORT #1 15.01.2022
E2025.3311
Ulcerate is a typeface born from pain, designed and created by someone who endured the cycle of misdiagnosis and medical mistreatment. For years, her symptoms were misunderstood, her pain dismissed, and her body subjected to the wrong medications. What began as an internal discomfort spiraled into something far worse: foveolar hyperplasia , a condition where the stomach lining thickens due to chronic irritation, ultimately leading to a severe ulcer. The very treatments meant to heal her had instead eroded her from within. Typography became her way of reclaiming that experience, of turning the unseen into something tangible. Rather than simply looking at what an ulcer does, she looked deeper into the cells that caused it. Foveolar hyperplasia occurs at a microscopic level, where gastric cells multiply abnormally, forming excess layers that disrupt the stomach’s delicate balance. This cellular transformation became the foundation of the Ulcerate Typeface.
