As part of the activities surrounding our new Over the Wall exhibition, we will be hosting a workshop with Italian graphic designer Gianluca Alla.
Originally from Italy, where he worked at Fabrica, Gianluca now works as an independent graphic designer from his London based AG office.
Typography is the main focus in all his animations, identities, posters and publications. The results always being a playful mix of experimentation and discipline.
We are going to design a custom monospace typeface that will be used to compose Italian weird idioms. These will literally be translated into English (they will probably sound even weirder). At the end of the workshop, the ‘Italish’ idioms (written with our typeface) and their meanings will be collected in a specimen fanzine dictionary!
