Letters for the Future

Ten Years of the Gerard Unger Scholarship

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

This book maps ten years of the Gerard Unger Scholarship, which was founded to help young type designers complete and publish their typefaces professionally. It provides a comprehensive history of the scholarship, introduces the typefaces produced thus far, and features interviews with the scholarship recipients. Named after one of the alchemists and godfathers of type design, Dr. Gerard Unger (1942-2018), the scholarship celebrates the melding of creativity and functionality. It shows how a positive outlook can impact an entire design category, raising its overall value globally, and setting the bar for future design work primarily committed to serving and benefiting others. It recognises the value of progressing together toward an interconnected and cosmopolitan future driven by fearless innovation, deep research, aesthetic beauty, and steadfast goodwill.
