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.
We think it is important to create platforms to let various universes communicate about their love of typography in their everyday practise.
Our international speakers for #now23 represent various spheres of the graphic design and typography world.
