Tré Seals is a Washington-based designer and the founder of Vocal Type, a type foundry where each typeface highlights a piece of history from a specific underrepresented race, ethnicity, or gender. Speaking about Seals’ practice, D&AD President Naresh Ramchandani said, “He’s a fantastic example of what happens when you put purpose at the centre of your work.” See more at https://www.dandad.org/
