Type Thursday Berlin – February 16, 2023

Type Thursday Berlin is here! ✨

Type Thursday is a monthly gathering for type and letterform lovers hailing from all disciplines and levels of expertise. No matter your background, if you like type, you’ll be right at home.

The event features various presentations by type both makers and users, and they range from experienced designers at the tops of their games to others just starting out. Everyone has a unique perspective and ideas which helps to spark thoughtful conversations.

The floor is also always open to TypeCrits. This is a moderated group critique of an 'in-progress' project involving letterform design or usage. The discussion is led by our Dialogue Lead, which helps turn attendees’ feedback for presenters into a conversation. No snobbery. No design police. Just a room full of knowledgeable letterform lvers helping one another do the best work we can. You can either give, have or just listen to feedback while drinking a beer. It is up to you!
