Typographic Poetry Workshop by Cosimo Lorenzo Pancini

Tuesday, Jun 10, 2014
11:00am -> 1:00pm
Beirut Design Week 2014

MENA Design Research Center

Taking Gibran Khalil Gibran’s poetry as a starting point, the workshop participants are invited to work with analogic methods to compose the texts of the poems given to them as adhesive transparent strips, with extra help from black tape and transfer type. Designers are warmly invited to close their laptops, revert to one typeface and embark on a new, unexpected, out of the box experience: to read and understand the text they are going to typeset.
