Better Bankside presents…An evening of Typeface

As part of London Design Festival 2024, Better Bankside is hosting leading creative agencies and typeface designers to discuss the inspiration behind their work.

Typeland – Amifer Folio: A custom display typeface for the Globe Theatre.
Discover the story behind Amifer Folio, the bespoke display typeface created for Shakespeare’s Globe to mark the 400th anniversary of the First Folio. Join Typeland co-founder Alessia Mazzarella for an overview of the creative processes, design challenges and fruitful collaborations and insights of custom fonts.

The Team – Type is Identity. Reshaping the (type)face of one of the largest and oldest savings organisations in the UK.
NS&I is unique. 160+ years old, government backed, and with 24.5 million savers on its books, the organisation is like no other in terms of their scale and role within the UK. Creative brand consultants, The Team, share their approach to reenergising the NS&I brand, and how they evolved a font, in collaboration with Fontsmith (now Monotype) to anchor the entire identity system.

To The Point – A force for good
Their ‘Force for Good campaigns’ help clients address issues and challenges to make a real difference. One of their core strengths, which they have seen contribute significantly to their success, is their philosophy of ‘making the complex simple’. They help simplify narratives, messages, and processes in a way that people can more easily understand.
