TIPOTECA ITALIANA

Poster designed for the 25th anniversary of the Tipoteca Italiana  museum in Cornuda (IT). As “birthday gift” for the first 25 years (1995–2020), Tipoteca Italiana asked 25 designers and printers, from all over the world, to design and print a poster. The project 25×25. Tipoteca 25 was conceived in this way. A Type-Kit, consisting of the digital scan of twenty typefaces from the Tipoteca archive was sent with which I could design the posters. The printing have been performed by the Tipoteca Stamperia on the basis of the indications of colours, fonts, and layout. 

Starting from Sunday, June 21, the twenty-five posters will be shown in the Gallery (plus an “extra” poster made by Tipoteca) in a temporary exhibition open until October 2020.
