untitled (cassette tape)
This book’s project was inspired by the original cassette tape that Eder (author of the text) gave to Germano many years ago. The tape’s insert contained a description of one of his dreams. On the original tape, on both the A and B side, a long classical song that started and stopped suddenly. Inspired by the original object and the text that follows at its end for endless repetition, we created an accordion book in the format of a cassette tape. It comes in a cassette case and its text is arranged in the form of a long line, reminiscent of the magnetic cassette from the tape.

Liana variable font
The variable font Liana was designed by Aleksandra Samulenkova and Just van Rossum for Typojanchi 2019. They started their “Liana” project with a lighthearted approach: algorithmically drawing spirally stalks over elegantly handdrawn stems. After a while, though, the new letterforms started to overgrow their hosts, and nearly suffocated their makers, who faced engineering a font with 162 masters, which at 16 MB is barely able to support ten characters. Just enough to set the words “Лиана” (Cyrillic) and “Liana” (Latin).
Automat
Automat is a variable typeface system that offers a modular and grid-based approach to typography. It draws upon the works of designers such as Wim Crouwel and Karl Gerstner during the 1960s and 1970s, as well as later digital reinterpretations from the 1990s. This system provides a unique blend of influences that offer a new perspective on typography.
The primary goal of Automat is to complement the work of its predecessors by enabling designers to manipulate the typeface seamlessly within a broad design framework. With two adjustable axes, the system offers a wide design space that can lead to unique and unconventional compositions. Automat provides a fresh perspective on typography that

Šumperák. Plans Went Astray.
Known informally as the Šumperák, the Model V single-family home became a smash hit, far and away the most commonly built model home in Czechoslovakia. It was loved – and loathed. Estimates of how many of these houses were built range from 5,000 to as many as 20,000. Given that Šumperáks were self-built, they naturally testify to their owners’ taste and skills. There is no way of knowing which house is the original. Tomáš Pospěch’s book provides a distinctive interpretation of this hit.

Rabbit Hole
Although 2019 is considered to be THE year of right-wing terrorist attacks worldwide and right-wing extremism has grown significantly in recent years, the topic of right-wing extremist online radicalization is still relatively under-researched. According to experts, everyone is potentially vulnerable to radicalization if circumstances favor it.
“Rabbit Hole” was conceived as a monothematic bookazine series, which examines one topic per issue related to the dangers and phenomena that the internet and digital platforms hold. It is intended to contribute to the education of young adults in particular.
Filter Bubbles’ Corrosive Effect on the Self
Fig. 1. Uniform corrosion; i.e. common but predictable, therefore very manageable and very often preventable.
A typographic yet abstract social commentary on filter bubbles which was selected for CHEAP Street Poster Art Festival’s open call: “Disorder, please” (Bologna, 2017)
Soliflore
Visual interpretation of “Soliflore”, a fascinating triptych by Iris Colomb that had my mind doing somersaults. The individual letters were generated/placed by a little creative code I wrote with basil.js and the rest was manual labour/love.
This piece is part of an ongoing series of collaborative experiments produced by arts collective Colliding Lines, inviting different designers and typographers to reinterpret the work of featured poets. The collaborations are remote and blind. Through this meeting the intention is to explore subjectivity in readings, and create pieces of shared authorship where the writer relinquishes authority over meaning to create something new.
Post-partum
Visual interpretation of “Post-partum”, a raw and absolutely beautiful poem by Hollie McNish that I completely empathise with. The visual elements were drawn with words.
This piece is part of an ongoing series of collaborative experiments produced by arts collective Colliding Lines, inviting different designers and typographers to reinterpret the work of featured poets. The collaborations are remote and blind; neither poet nor visualiser have met or are aware of each others’ name or work. Through this meeting the intention is to explore subjectivity in readings, and create pieces of shared authorship where the writer relinquishes authority over meaning to create something new.
33712
During a parliamentary meeting to discuss Thailand’s national budget for the year 2022, a politician presented a pie chart showing the budget being allocated to the monarchy. The amount of 33,712 million Thai Bath (approx. 1 billion USD) caused a big debate as the country was struggling to fight COVID-19. We split the pie charts in pieces and rearranged them into a lettering that said “sufficiency” and posted it on Facebook. The image went viral because “Sufficiency Economy” is a concept of development approach that the monarchy promoted despite our king being the world’s richest monarch.
We then completed the font and used it on anti-monarchy campaigns, a music video and merchandises.
