Find your way to Juan Bruce’s Noort
Centuries ago, when new lands were still new, discerning mapmakers needed to layer clear words over colours and along contours, landmarks, and topography. Those same challenges exist now in the world of information architecture, and Juan Bruce’s Noort was created to solve those modern day problems. Noort’s ability to stand apart from the visual landscape it inhabits means it can easily balance today’s complex information and complex style. Check out this newest serif release from TypeTogether, which was also the second Typographic Publishing Incentive Programme winner.

Reading’s Lisbeth Poster Project
TypeTogether is always looking for new ways to connect type design with graphic design, especially in the educational realm. Under the instruction of Sara Chapman, lecturer at Reading University’s Department of Typography & Graphic Communication, the second-year graphic design students were given a competitive project: create a poster showing off Louisa Frölich’s Lisbeth. Each student was given a licence for the family and the winner, Theodosis Demetriou, won a small sum of money for his entry. Check out the blog post to see all the entries. And if you’re in academia and would like the chance to collaborate with TypeTogether, get in touch! We’re always looking for great ideas and ways to connect.
