Metric Typeface

Typography, Book Design

A book about the typeface that was developed for the art and design festival 'M2Square'.

Buchgestaltung für die „Metric Typeface“ von Bartholomaedesign.

Bartholomaedesign has created a book in 2022 that presents the typeface developed especially for the M2 Square Festival. The festival, where artists exhibited their works on one square meter, inspired the design of a sans serif monospace font based on different grid structures.

 

In this book, the letters resulting from the festival look were collected in all their variations. Typography enthusiasts and design fans were able to pick up a copy in the festival gift store and be inspired by the wide range of possibilities. The font includes different variations, whether as dots in a grid, in black or white, as protruding letters or in a negative representation. This variety impressively demonstrates the creative applications that are possible.

 

The book not only presents complete alphabets, but also individual letters and artistic patterns generated from them. Each letter and pattern is presented in detail, which emphasizes the creative richness of the font.

 

Bartholomaedesign created the book in 210 x 150 mm format. With its 871 pages and thread binding, it is a high-quality collector‘s item. The cover has been cellophane wrapped to provide additional protection and an appealing feel.
