More information about the event at the Three Tunns, Bishops Castle on July 23rd
If for you type is an afterthought; a necessary evil, trivia, insignificant; irrelevant. If you reach for Helvetica every time you need a font, because of its ‘neutrality’. If you don’t know your Eras from your Bembo. You need to spend an evening with Bruno Maag.
Bruno Maag is into type. After an apprenticeship as a typesetter
for the Tages Anzeiger, Switzerland's largest daily. He went on to study typography at Basel School of Art. Bruno cut his teeth designing type at Monotype, both in the UK and in the States where he designed fonts for the New Yorker magazine.
He established Dalton Maag seventeen years ago. The cream of type design and technology professionals work for Dalton Maag. Expectation and passion runs high in the Brixton studio. From ampersands to umlaut nothing is safe from brutal analysis.
Bruno is REALLY into type.
Most likely to say ‘I am a craftsman...not an artist’
Least likely to say ‘This looks like a job for Helvetica’
Bruno feels the pleasure of a beautifully crafted typeface and
the pain of any misuse.
In Bishop’s Castle Bruno will talk to you about font selection. Getting the right type for the job.
