Each chapter presents an original type system through its conceptual premise, structural logic and applied context, showing how typographic decisions translate into form and use. The journal provides a framework for understanding type as an active component in branding and communication.

Zoom

The Zoom exhibition (Museum of Ethnography, Budapest) takes an unconventional approach to the museum’s collection.

The catalogue attempts to introduce this approach through different graphical and bookbinding-printing solutions. The book’s inner spine features a uniquely generated pattern for each copy which is a reinterpretation of the embroidered motifs typical to Hungarian folk art. The exhibition was designed by art1st Design Studio, lead designer Daniel Taraczky.

3D Embossed

The book uses 3D embossing to document and highlight the intricate details of the works meticulously crafted by traditional Singaporean artisans, from paper dragon boats and Indian jewelry to Peranakan beaded shoes. The color pages symbolize the rise and fall of traditional crafts, as the industry begins its developmental period (dull) to its golden age (yellow) and gradually fades (white). A pastel chalk is attached for readers to shade the pages and discover the lost arts of this intangible cultural heritage of Singapore, as only we humans can safeguard, support and bring it back.

Hill of Owls

The designer aimed for the book not only to remind of the past, but also to reflect the present, so the bright orange and black colours was chosen, which is a symbol of energy, creativity, and the thematic colour of the present institution at the premises. The book is designed in a minimalistic way while the sleeve itself has no title, only the period of time and a stylized owl encoded on its front, which is a symbolic way of marking the centenary and school location. Classic printing technologies, such as offset printing and hot stamp foiling, was used to achieve the result.
