While studying the city, the future ambassador discovers it anew, like a student discovers a primer at school. For the construction of the identity, a typographic solution was chosen, based on the principle of typographic eclecticism: the Old National script, interspersed with the cursive script and recognizable fonts of the avant-garde artists. The color scheme is laconic-bright red.

Fabric / FAB is an Exhibition of Sustainable Fashion. The main task in developing the exhibition identity was to create a typographic style. The accidental font used in the design Concept reflects one of the central messages of the exhibition – a call to reduce consumption in the fashion sector, a call for reasonable consumption. Graphically, the solution is based on a cross-type of a pair of fonts-strictly grotesque and openwork accidental font, resembling the folds of fabric.
