Type In Space — Explore Spatial Typography In Mixed Reality with HoloLens - As a graphic designer who loves type design and typography, I wanted to see beautiful type in space. We have been seeing many examples of type overlay in motion graphics and TV commercials but they were stuck in flat 2D screens. Since I met HoloLens in 2016, I have been exploring type in mixed reality space.

An in-depth look at past projects, implementation details, tips on improving performance, and source code to the Mixed Reality Toolkit.

You can get Type In Space for free on the Microsoft store
