The first basic characters of Yaki were originally designed in 2013 for the packaging and logo-design of YOKO LIGHT. In 2014 we completed the font and added 2 extra layers for multi-color variations within the characters. Yaki is a set of three fonts. Yaki One is the plain version. Yaki Two and Yaki Three are separate fonts combining two layers with different colors.


Yaki is designed by:
