Grazie mille! (LPW2015)

By BunkerType with..., Letterpress, WorksNo Comments

I just arrived from Leoncavallo where the fourth edition of Letterpress workers was held with not enough time to digest the experience but with the need to write this few words. I have the need to thank, as soon as possible, the experience, the learning, the intensity, the talent and generosity that filled the amazing space in Milan. /// I am trying to organize, summarize, find an approach in order to synthesize the experience and I realize that it is not going to be possible. I am assuming my state of shock and I realize that a slow decompression will…

“I think almost everyone has had a good idea at some point, the difference is that some are crazy enough to believe that they can build it”.  That’s what Matías Corea thinks or at least is what he answered in an interview (published in La Vanguardia last 10/07/2014). Matías Corea is the co-founder of Behance, with whom -along with his partner Lindsay Aranoff- I had the pleasure of sharing some days of letters and ink at the rhythm of jazz, a few days ago at BunkerType. I must confess that when I first read the mail in which Matias suggested me the…

BunkerType with… Martina

By BunkerType with...No Comments

No doubt this is going to be a splendid year for typography lovers, although great appointments are expected – as the Congress of the ATypI or the 6th International Congress of Typography in Valencia – according to our guest, none of them reaches the success of the already legendary Week of the Protagonist, in which in strict alphabetical order each student becomes a celebrity during one school week, becoming officially – and with no hesitation – the teacher’s favorite and focusing much from the rest of the children in the group activities. Facing this great event, Martina decided to amuse…
