Although the Kama Sutra Alphabet is essentially made up of cartoons, they will some make people blush so furiously someone might dial 911 without even asking what the problem is. As its name gives away, the series of racy fonts illustrate 24 different positions that can be explored in the bedroom (or any other part of house, for that matter).
The initial concept for the Kama Sutra Alphabet was conceived after the French illustrator and graphic designer Mailka Favre was commissioned by Penguin Books to illustrate the new Deluxe Classic Cover of the Kama Sutra by Vatsyayana. She went on to design a full animated gif alphabet with some animators. The style is bold and colorful, which is inspired by her life in London, England.
