Welcome to our Blog

We are pleased to announce that TYPO London is opening in London in October 2011. TYPO conferences are international design events hosted and by FontShop in Germany. TYPO Berlin has been one of Europe’s most successful design conferences since 1995, hosting a who’s who of the biggest names in design with appearances from an amazing array of creative talent from Adrian Frutiger to Günter Gerhard Lange and Gerard Unger talking type; to Wim Crouwel, Tibor Kalman and Javier Mariscal speaking on design; to Ian Anderson, Neville Brody and David Carson exploring new visual langauges.

So as you can see TYPO London is not really that new, especially if you consider that TYPO Conferences originated from the FontShop organised FUSE Conferences that ran in London in 1994 and Berlin in 1995.

Each conference is dedicated to a different theme. Previous years’ presentations can be viewed on our Video Blog. The theme for this years TYPO London 2011 is “Places” and the TYPO London team is inviting a broad selection of speakers and presentations from architects, urban planers, information designers, graphic designers, brand agencies, digital designers, UX professionals and interaction designers. We also have speakers from the film industry and keynotes will vary from the physical to the metaphorical understanding of “Places”.

You can explore web pages from previous years TYPO conferences in the TYPO Archive.
