# Welcome to the Variable Lab documentation!

Variable Lab is a collaborative research endeavour of media artists and developers studio Pointer* and type designer Céline Hurka.
Together they are exploring the new ways in which variable fonts can facilitate written communication.
Variable font technology is relatively recent and is slowly gaining more attention in the design community. We believe it is currently under-explored despite its novelty and significant potential in communication. A variable letterform is a fluid shape with defined extremes and infinite variations. This feature introduces a (time-based) flexibility that can be applied in static and dynamic designs. Such variability can create new layers of information and enrich the reading experience in a wide range of ways. Imagining and implementing those possibilities will be the primary subject of our collective research.
