Typographics is a design festival in New York City dedicated entirely to the art and craft of type. Founded in 2014 and held annually, it brings together typographers, type designers, graphic designers, and anyone who cares deeply about letters, words, and how they look on a page or screen.

The festival runs across multiple days and venues throughout NYC, with a program that includes talks, workshops, type walks, and social events. Speakers come from studios, foundries, universities, and independent practices around the world — making it a genuinely international gathering despite its strong New York character.

Typographics occupies a unique space in the design conference landscape. It's focused enough to go deep on type, but broad enough to attract designers from all disciplines who want to sharpen their typographic thinking. If letters matter to your work, this is one of the best places to spend a few days.

I moved to Brussels a year and a half ago, from a small town, to pursue more photography opportunities. The Creative Lunch Club has been instrumental in helping me connect with other creatives and discover the wonders of this city. Sharing lunch with like-minded creatives has opened up new ideas and perspectives for me. The passion and energy from these gatherings never fail to inspire and motivate me.
