Interactive Reading Interfaces and Parametric Typefaces

In the current digital era, reading has largely migrated from paper to screens. Despite this shift from paper-based to digital reading, our reading methods have evolved remarkably little. Text often remains static, leaving the dynamic and adaptive capabilities of digital devices un(der)utilized. At the Centre for Visibility Design (Royal Danish Academy), we explore how interactive… Continue reading Interactive Reading Interfaces and Parametric Typefaces

The Danish Type Design Tradition

As the host institution at the Royal Danish Academy, we are pleased to offer a comprehensive introduction to the Danish type design scene for the ATypI audience. Denmark has a rich sign painting tradition, which has significantly influenced the development of modern Danish type design. The broader historical context will be outlined by Sofie Beier… Continue reading The Danish Type Design Tradition

Shifting From Static Book to Variable Interactions

This proposal explores fluidity in book design as a transformative framework that challenges static and linear paradigms. Inspired by text-based art, concrete typography, and literary experiments, it examines how physical interaction, nonlinear narratives, and conceptual adaptability redefine the book as an immersive, evolving medium. Books can become dynamic, interactive experiences through foldouts, modular pages, and… Continue reading Shifting From Static Book to Variable Interactions
