Tokyo Type Directors Club 2022

Priscilla Balmer

Creation of the event identity for the 2022 edition of Tokyo TDC Annual Awards in the Ginza Graphic Gallery (ggg), Tokyo, Japan. The poster is printed in two colors (Chrome and black) on glossy Japanese paper. The typographic composition mixes Latin and Japanese characters, playing with strong and light elements. The tilt found in the "ggg" logo defined the design of the TDC letters to highlight and continue this dynamic.
