My Digital Type Foundry
Exhibitions
First edition of the festival. Invited with Atelier télescopique providing an generative installation displayed at night in a barbershop window. The festival regrouped people from: Akroe, Rinzen, Staynice, Via Grafik, Visual Data, etc.
An interactive installation inviting you to create and publish online your dream palace, inspired from color and shapes of architectures and cultures from India. All the designed palaces create an imaginary landscape: Calacala City.
Speaking
Let’s go beyond Bold, Regular and Medium! I’m pretty sure there are corners in typography that you didn’t explore yet. Let me take you on a journey to those lands.
Let’s shade a Light (pun intended) on the topics like:
Writing systems
The birth and production of fonts
The type business
Why care about licenses
A talk about digital type, not limited to the web. Accessible to anyone willing to go beyond the font files they found on their computers.
A lecture about design, system thinking, documentation and collaboration and how it helps organisations.
Cooking as a metaphor for design and information architecture.
A conference about why and how care about internationalisation (i18n) & localisation (l10n) in your digital projects.
This talk was also given at IxDA Lausanne meetup in 2017.
“ Let's go green for a few minutes and envision our design practices from the perspective of a pea. What's your life like inside the pod?” — A fun yet serious metaphor for design teams.
Prototyping 101: a bit of history, a pinch of goals and a chunk of opportunities doing and testing prototypes in our design practice.
Hungry? Cook interaction! A food exploration for interaction design.
Eating is a primary human need and one of our own energy source. We have developed tools and techniques to hunt, grow, produce and keep all sorts of food. We have designed countless solutions to cook and present food, make it an interesting activity to renew.
Interaction design is like a problem solving cake with human emotions flavors in it… Let's find out if we can call ourselves Design Chefs or at least be good interaction cooks for people.
Writing
The challenge that bootstrapped a font family project and revived ideas for many more fonts!
100 days, 100 lettering pieces, 1 article.
I’m a drummer. Sort of…

Features
“In August, we are celebrating lines. Curved lines, straight lines, finishing lines: whether symbolic or composing a drawing or a building, lines are the very basis of the aesthetic equilibrium surrounding us. We chose to entrust the keys of this month’s artwork to the talent of Art Director Guillaume Berry. He took up the challenge and is offering a unique and evolving typography that you will discover as the weeks go by.”
