The Faces Behind Faces is a digital editorial looking at the impact of Type Directors Club medalists, and the award itself, on the global design and typography community—with first-hand stories and appreciation from TDC members. Since the editorial also celebrates the 75th anniversary of Type Directors Club it’s intentionally close to the TDC style in terms of used two-colored pallet and rigour typography. Our choice of typeface had to strike a balance between legibility and readability, while remaining appropriate for the editorial concept and its audience.

We opted for Neue Haas Unica—a time-tested typeface with a lot of different weights.

The editorial was made with Readymag and is a product of collaboration between Readymag and Type Directors Club.
