Helvetica No More

Samantha Dicriscio

Helvetica No More is a poster designed to play with the idea of using different typefaces within the design world. The talk was presented by Rainer Erich Scheichelbauer, a type designer, teacher, writer, and translator. He brings forward the idea of “letting go of Helvetica” and demonstrates what today’s variety of typefaces can do and how accessible they are. This poster displays Rainer’s ideas by breaking apart a typeface, scattering it across the page, and showing off the elegance of different typefaces other than Helvetica. We are at the dawn of the new era of typeface design.
