光朝 (Kōchō) “is an original Ming-cho typeface based on the design jotted down over time by graphic designer Ikko Tanaka. With the roman Bodoni font in mind as the end game of elements of Ming-cho styles, its modern forms consists of horizontal strokes that are thinned and sharped to the max, triangular Uroko (serifs), full Osae (pressure), and vertical strokes that have solid strength.” [Morisawa]
