About

A Type-Atelier based in Singapore, Craft Varies specialising in calligraphy and hand-lettering services. Based in Singapore, their portfolio of work comprises fine calligraphic artworks; handwritten invitations; large-scale sign-paintings and wall murals. Craft Varies works closely with luxury brands and personal clients to deliver customised letters and messages through different lavish mediums.

Craft Varies was founded by Clarence Valerius Wee (b. 1988), who discovered his passion for typography during the course of his tertiary education in graphic design. In order to better understand the anatomy of alphabetical forms, he went back to basics and dedicated himself to mastering calligraphy – he has since been practicing for over ten years now. From the many years of practice, it has opened the door to better understand the mind-muscle connection which led him to yoga.

In 2014, Clarence conceived ‘Tralligrapher’ to spread the awareness and appreciation of calligraphy to the masses. Combining the words ‘Travelling’ and ‘Calligrapher,’ the small-scale project takes place in cafés and specialty stores, where passersby may approach Clarence, the ‘Tralligrapher’, to get a short message handwritten on a pay-as-you-wish basis. Tralligrapher has since taken place in Australia, Bangkok, Singapore and Taiwan.
