On Monday evening we celebrated student type design with four talented finalists for our Updike Prize for Student Type Design. Here they are (with typeface names in italics):
June Shin, Ithaka (First Prize)
SooHee Cho, The Black Cat
Cem Eskinazi, Mond
Íñigo López Vázquez, Erik Text
If you didn’t get a chance to attend the event on Monday you can still see examples of the students’ work on display in our third floor exhibition area.
And if you’re an aspiring student type designer, it’s never too soon to start working on your entry for the 2017 prize. Contact us or stop in to ask about the contest.
Thanks to our sponsors, Paperworks, for making the prize possible. And thanks as well to Fiona Ross, this year’s guest speaker, who enlightened our audience on the topic of non-Latin type design.
