What is Coptography?
Coptography is a design research project and concept store based in the US and Egypt, driven by the belief that the beauty of Egyptian Coptic scripts, both ancient and modern, should be shared with the world. We are deeply passionate about typography and the ways in which it can be used to explore and preserve our cultural heritage.

The name "Coptography" combines "Coptic" and "Typography," reflecting our mission to blend the timeless beauty of Coptic scripts with modern design.
Our Mission
Our mission is to showcase the beauty and cultural significance of Egyptian Coptic scripts through curated designs. We aim to raise awareness and appreciation for the rich history of Coptic scripts with carefully selected products. Our goal is to bring Egypt’s ancient scripts into the modern world in innovative ways, highlighting their beauty and the unique insights they offer into our culture and traditions. Coptography shares research-driven insights to inspire a deeper understanding of these timeless scripts and their cultural significance, bridging Egypt’s past with its present.
Behind the work
This work is led by Jennifer Yacoub, a designer and researcher exploring the intersection of language, typography, and cultural preservation.
Coptography brings together research and design to explore Coptic scripts through form, meaning, and visual expression.
