We’ve recently had the opportunity to visit the Imprimere National archives under the guidance of @BornaIz and the IN staff Éric. We got to closely view the punches and matrices of varios types in various scripts produced by prominent European type makers.

Things to do right before ISType 2024: Visit the Biblioteca Marciana in Venice and closely analyze Aldus’ fantastic books—the groundbreaking octavo format and Griffo’s phenomenal Italic types. More news on the Aldus Project will be revealed next week at the Frankfurt Book Fair!

İlk kez bir @ISType kaçırıyor olacağım, üzgünüm. YouTube’da video seyretmekle olmuyor kanımca. Sevgili tipografisever meslektaşlarım, bu seneki program müthiş, lütfen siz kaçırmayın! Hatta, izlenimlerinizi Manifold’a yazarsanız ekstra müthiş olur :) istype.com/2024/
