Published by Humanitas, 《Our Song》 brings together nine oral life histories of people who have lived through changing times with protest music, stood against discrimination, and built their lives in unfamiliar places.

Everyday Practice designed a typography-driven book cover using the title, chapter headings, and authors’ names. By combining traditional Korean serif (Myeongjo) and sans-serif (Gothic) typefaces and rearranging Hangul letterforms, we expressed the distinct character of each life and story.

For the Myeongjo typeface, we used Sanjan Regular by type designer Taeryong Kim to highlight the structural beauty of Hangul and convey a warm, approachable character.

Centered around the title, letters of varying sizes are arranged rhythmically, while scattered text transforms typography into a visual composition. The contrast in letter size, weight, and spacing against a minimal black-and-white background highlights the structural beauty of Hangul and creates a sense of spatial depth.
