ABOUT THE EVENT:

Meet some of the 25TDC Typeface Design Jury moderated by Nadine Chahine, Committee Co-Chair.

This year marks the expansion of TDC’s Typeface Design Competition with 3 extra categories added for Arabic, Indic, and CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) scripts. Each of these categories has 3 judges known for their expertise in that field.

Join us on December 9th to hear from our inaugural judges as they discuss how one can define excellence in type design in each of these 3 categories, if there is anything there that is unique to that script’s historical printing and typographic history, and to discuss the general state of type design at this point in time.

You can sign up for links to all three panels or join them individually (see ticket types). All events are FREE.
