Gundert

Hermann Gundert’s handwritten notes contained glyphs of Vattezhuthu, an ancient script with almost no digital presence. Indran spent months vectorizing them, converting historical handwritten marks into clean SVG, glyph by glyph. The mentorship here was in guiding that process: understanding what precision means when the source material is centuries old and the margin for interpretation is almost zero.

The output is a web page with the glyphs embedded. Not a font in the conventional sense. Something closer to preservation work.
