TypEd Programme

Unlock centuries of typographic mastery with TypEd – a workshop series led by industry experts, delving into the art and craft of letterforms.

Participants are invited to build skills and knowledge in lettering, type history, editorial design, typeface design, illustration, technology and production.

Tap into St Bride Foundation’s rich 130-year legacy of excellence in type education, from its Victorian Printing School origins to today’s role as a cultural beacon for the typographically passionate. Workshops will be complemented by the treasure trove of our library collections, including the world’s largest collection of type specimens.

TypEd programme curated by Lilly Marques, a designer working within tech and type.
