Open Craft 2019
Design of catalogue and posters for Open Craft – Queer Materialism – an arts & crafts exhibition displaying the work by 30 artisans at Stadsträdgården, Örebro, Sweden, June 8–September 1, 2019. The exhibition is displayed in a greenhouse environment, thus becomes part of the daily operation at the location.
The graphic concept takes inspiration from crafts such as patchwork reflected in patterns & shapes as well as the layout of the typography. The title typography is custom-made and the color palette reflects the soil, greenery, sky, and sun at the location of the exhibition.
Typefaces used are: OrLemmen by Or Type, Maple by Process Type Foundry & Neue Machina by The Pangram Pangram Foundry.
The catalogue is 96 pages and printed with offset, using a 300 g matte cover with UV coated title, and a 100 g matte paper inside.
