The Typographic Design workshop proposes to question and experiment with the morphology of a text and the architecture of the page in a physical or digital editorial context. The projects cross multiple cultural contexts such as music, cinema, literature, painting, … Each new textual content prompts an exploration of typography from a historical, cultural and formal angle. Analyzing and questioning what typography is today, the orientation invites the student to question its codes and applications, to relay content and to develop a critical and personal view.
  
MODULES :

In Bachelor 2, the year is built around several exercises linked to each other. These question the sign, the typography, the layout and the layout and are introduced by documented presentations. The course considers research through analysis (observation of existing editions with the Competition of the Most Beautiful Swiss Books) and that of argumentation (questioning the contents and approaching the concepts of a dramaturgy). The workshop also tackles the question of communication and that of the installation of spoken books exhibited each year in the gallery of the erg. This exhibition is designed and produced in collaboration with the Bachelor 3 Typographic Design studio.

In Bachelor 3, the workshop proposes to experiment with the text in a mainly editorial context where all the components – typographic choice, format, grid, structure, materiality… – result from choices induced by a specific and singular bias. We will analyze books and learn the rules and uses of typographic composition in order to master them and be able to appropriate and reinterpret them. As time goes on, the exercises proposed will be more and more open so as to invite the student to explore themes and mediums resulting from his own interests and thus develop a look, a critical sense. This openness also offers the possibility of creating links with the various theoretical and practical courses preparing the student to acquire greater autonomy with a view to a possible Master's degree.

The exercises suggested to students provide them with ideas for exploration and research and often confront them to tangible suggestions touching on the drawing or the space of letters – the layout.
 
Students are lead to think about criteria of quality, readability and contemporaneity as well as the balance between substance and form.

'''Masters'''
 
 
 
Professors : [[Manuela Dechamps Otamendi]], [[Renaud Huberlant]]
 
 
 
The typography course in Masters questions the creative resources of typography. In this context, typography is seen more as a mean than as an end. The issues of characters drawing are downplayed in favor of the cultural, critical and historical foundation of typography.
 
The course is organised in practical modules of different length and range. Each module gives a specific context blending historical, economical, artistic, societal data that students explore from and with the field of typography.
 
In relation to this specific and documented context, each student is given – or chooses – an area of research and a practical, experimental and contemporary work.
 
Students are never asked to provide a “solution” to a given "problem”, but rather to enrich and to problematize the notions and concepts studied.
 
 
 
[[Catégorie:English]]
 
At the end of the cycle, each student is asked to conduct a parallel work related to and consistent with their dissertation and their thesis in order to provide a typographic explanation.
