About Us

The Typographics festival is organized and run by a small group of type fans.

The design festival, hosted online this year, is a forum for presentations about graphic design, web design, publication design, book design, type design, packaging, branding, corporate identity, advertising, motion graphics, and more. Importantly, Typographics focuses on new frontiers in digital typography. The international line-up of participants includes emerging and established designers, attracting a vital and intelligent community of attendees. Along with the main conference, Type@Cooper offers workshops and tours, open to the public, to educate and entertain participants.
