A Typographic Atlas
12.02–14.03.2026
Circolo del Design, Turin


Curated by Master Type Design and Bachelor Graphic Design programmes, this project presents a wide selection of 300 typefaces created by ECAL students from around the world.


Presented as a typographic atlas, the exhibition is structured around a single indexing approach. This system is translated into a modular display designed by Adrien Rovero . Alphabetical entries and numerical coordinates form a navigational framework, inviting visitors to move through a typographic territory.

Typography is treated as a visual, cultural and linguistic practice, from experimental forms to functional families and multiscript projects, encouraging us to reconsider how type mediates everyday communication.

Conceived as a travelling exhibition, ECAL A Typographic Atlas reflects ECAL’s long-standing commitment to contemporary graphic and type design.
