About Us
Typographics is organized and run by a dedicated group of typography fans, offering talks and other programming for people who use type.
Started in 2015, the Typographics design festival is an annual forum for presentations about graphic design, web design, publication design, book design, type design, packaging, branding, corporate identity, advertising, motion graphics, and more. Importantly, Typographics focuses on new frontiers in digital typography. The international line-up of speakers includes emerging and established designers, attracting a vital and intelligent community of attendees. In addition to the main conference, the festival also includes workshops, a book fair, a TypeLab, and more.
Typographics is presented by Type@Cooper and The Herb Lubalin Study Center at The Cooper Union in New York City.
