“A presentation of work and the thoughts of some of the most interesting and innovative creators and thinkers in the typographic field and guides the reader in a hidden world of undefined and antagonistic areas in typographic design.”

Marie Boulanger, brand designer at Monotype, talks about her research project looking at how we connect emotionally with typography.

Built around provenance technology that enables attribution for font designers and provides font consumers with information about the origin of a font and how it’s been altered.

Thirty-nine typefaces from The Font Bureau, including David Berlow classics Belizio, and Bureau-Grot, join the Monotype Library 

“Perfection isn’t always the main goal. Teams should not shy away from imperfection and instead value the process of constant improvement. Doing so will enable companies to foster a culture of innovation and creativity.”

Terrance Weinzierl, creative director at Monotype, discusses how AI can transform the daily workflow of designers by providing fresh, informed inspiration in font pairings, and how it aids the speed and quality of font combinations while inspiring designers to be more creative.

Paris, 3 April 2023- Monotype, one of the world’s leading font and technology specialists, today released an in-depth study on the power of different fonts to convey an emotional response. The research was conducted in the UK and in France, and it found that the French have more emotional responses when viewing typography than their British counterparts. The findings highlight both the power of typography to convey different “feelings” – and significant national differences in emotional response to type.

Monotype is sponsoring scholarships for both the Adé Hogue Scholarship and the Beatrice Warde Scholarship, which are open and calling for applications through The Type Directors Club.

The entry for these scholarships have been extended to March 31, 2023.
