To become a partner of TypeParis is both to participate in enriching the programme, but it is also to make these conferences richer, to allow a better reception.

It is of course to guarantee you a good visibility, before, during and after the conferences and summer programme and workshops. Because our target is very studied to allow you to reach those who have a particular interest for typography, those, who will be the ambassadors of your brand.

Learning type design

The TypeParis Summer programme is an intensive course in English that takes in the heart of near Eiffel Tower in Paris. Our unique approach continues the long tradition of type design study that started in France back in the 1970’s. During the year, we organise workshops in Paris and sometimes elsewhere who cover type design, sign painting, lettering, use of software, etc.

Attendees will leave the programme with the specialised skills to design professional high quality digital typefaces, lettering and logotypes. Since 2015, we have trained nearly 111 attendees who came from all over the world, 33 countries represented to date.

TypeParis is built around a team of renowned professionals and experienced instructors: Jean François Porchez, Mathieu Réguer, Marc Rouault, Gina Serret, Julie Soudanne, Malou Verlomme. Rainer Erich Scheichelbauer and Georg Seifer from Glyphs handle special sessions with the attendees. Our weekly international guest critics for #TypeParis23 has been Bas Jacobs (Underware), Sandrine Nugue, Dino dos Santos (DS Type) and Franziska Weitgruber. They will each spend a day with the attendees and, in the evening, speak about their work.

Conferences

TypeParis23 speakers and guests

Conferences have been an integral part since the launch of TypeParis in 2015, as evidenced by our Video channel. We think it is important to create platforms to let various universes communicate about their love of typography in their everyday practise. It’s why we are organizing our 2nd annual conference Now24 conference in Paris on 1 June 2024. Speakers will announced early 2024, as well workshops.

Designing a good typeface is one thing, but it’s a tiny aspect of the whole picture. The big deal is designing with type. In order to draw letters in a mindful way, we must all understand what type is for, how graphic designers, art directors use it, how they work with it, how they transform it, how they break it and, most importantly, how they communicate with it.
