Community Views displays VARIANZ Low Sans and Mid Sans in combination with Archivo for the use in a booklet and an exhibition stand at the Dutch Design Week 2023.

VARIANZ Low Sans serves as the workhorse sans, used for long-reading texts and captions in the magazine, as well as for the texts on the exhibition posters. Fine details in the layout are standing out, where the VARIANZ Mid Sans comes into play for subheadings and the column title – emphasized through a colourful gradient filling. The Archivo font is used for short headlines.

The Community Views project aimed to explore the impact of public social installations in urban spaces on community and interpersonal relationships. Started as Miriam Neukam’s Master thesis in the Design & Future Making department at HS Pforzheim, the project was presented at the Dutch Design Week 2023.

The project took place at the centrally located Waisenhausplatz in Pforzheim, Germany. Installations were set up there, focusing on the themes of urban design, interpersonal relationships, and ethical values. These installations were equipped with a variety of materials which were accessible to everyone. This created a space for encounters and exchanges. Through collaborative creative work, wishes and statements were collected and reflected upon. This, in turn, led to a broader discussion of topics that enriched the exchange.
