In association with Theodore Sutra with the support of Cedric Philippe.  Interactive demo realized with Indesign digital publishing suit.
With Typalchimie, you step into the shoes of an alchemist in the Middle Ages. On a short period of time, you grow a typographic-plant, spraying it, lightening it by sunlight or moonlight, inputing fertilizer, pruning it or even putting music on for it. Every action will influence the design of the typeface you harvest at the end, and every new plant will give you an original new typography.
The black & white interface design is based on old engravings.

The third interface allows you to publish your creation, chat with the community users of Typalchimie and even exchange your fonts with them !

In the laboratory, other versions of your font can be generated by the athanor, alambic, etc. (bold, light, thin, condensed, extended, italics).
