From sound to glyph: the typographic representation of languages
In this talk, Jo De Baerdemaeker will present some of the typefaces he designed for national and international design projects.
27 May 2016 at 19:30, Kattendijkdo
These are, amongst others, the fonts for stad Antwerpen, Flanders Art font family, Elegant Contemporary and Wiels; as well as his non-Latin (Lungta Tibetan, Nirmala Bengali, Sherpa font family, Noto Javanese, and Mongolian) fonts for Microsoft, Google/Monotype, New York Times; and other projects.
An exhibition with original silkscreen printed type specimen posters, and photography, from Jo De Baerdemaeker / studio type is shown throughout the evening, and a unique type specimen will be printed in situ, as a keepsake of the evening for each of the attendees.
All welcome!
