The Form of Form

Artur Rebelo

"Form of Form" 4th edition of Lisbon Architecture Triennale. Its graphic identity is built around the typographical elements of the title, with prominence being given to the two square “o’s” that generate various spaces between themselves. The typesetting is spartan, displaying an economical approach to available resources, and it is capable of generating an infinity of forms.
