TYPO Berlin 2013 – Touch, Berlin (D), 16–18 May 2013

Posted as part of a little survey about websites for conferences on typography and graphic design – how do these specialist events present themselves typographically, in 2013?

TYPO Berlin is the mother of type conferences. Since 2011, it has spawned a number of offshoots: TYPO London, San Francisco, and the local TYPO Days. The website is full of features and information, arranged in a solid adaptive layout. It uses various weights of the capable FF Clan. The text face in the Blog section is FF Tundra.

Berlin 2013 »Touch« is integrated into the bigger TYPO Talks mother ship. This year’s key color is a pale olive green. As a special feature, there is a series of sound “interjections” which are activated on hover. Make sure to turn off your speakers, or you will quickly annoy your co-workers.
