I think it all started around 2014. I joined a friend of mine in a new atelier and started getting interesting in Street Art. And while reading one of the many magazines we had there, I stubbled upon a post about L’Atlas. I loved the geometry used in his works, but most of all how he could deal between shapes and letters, making his art between abstract and a concrete message.

Lately I have a lot thought about how to contribute to Black Lives Matter mouvement, but also to anti-racism in general. I have started different things and one of them is to offer lettering artworks for people who protest. So I designed 3 of them.

These days are really strange and unique. I have been once in town to my office in one month. I have learned to communicate more and more via chats and messaging apps. Even my parents use Facetime now. And that’s a point I like to be honest. A week ago, I have attended the CanceledCon Conference. It is a design conference at some point made online because we could not meet. It’s a US conference but many people from around the world could attend thanks to technology. I loved the idea.

I discovered that book, written by Mark van Wageningen, last year when I was at Berlin Letters. I was really shocked because I worked with color fonts for some months and discovering that there was a book about it was really exciting. I started to look inside and my excitement was getting bigger. First because there were great examples of color fonts, but also because the writer was giving a lot of insights and tips on how to create a color font.
