To the rhythm of the Super Tipo Veloz modular typeface, a summery customized version of the typeface —inspired by towels and parasols— presents the first edition of the Istiu festival —a colloquial dialectal variant of estiu, “summer” in Catalan.

The illustrations and typography are based on the typographic system created by Joan Trochut in 1942 —a pioneer and benchmark in Spanish graphic design—, digitalized and revived by Andreu Balius and Àlex Trochut in 2004.

The stripes and colour combinations —which will change for each edition of the festival— seek to transmit the freshness of the summer breeze while at the same time set the tempo and visual rhythm of the artists’ names.
