Universal Thirst

Universal Thirst is a type foundry that specialises in Indic and Latin fonts. It was set up in 2016 by designer and engineer duo Gunnar Vilhjálmsson and Kalapi Gajjar, who draw on their contrasting visual heritage to offer a unique, dual perspective on type. Universal Thirst creates bespoke typefaces for companies of all sizes. Our global perspective makes us an invaluable design partner for brands working worldwide, particularly those doing business in South Asia. Our team of designers and engineers can help navigate the diverse and complex languages of these countries. Universal Thirst’s library of fonts - which includes hard working faces as well as experimental designs that push the possibilities for writing systems - is available for license by individuals and companies.
