Letters from France: Type Designer Jean-François Porchez
Meet award-winning French type designer Jean-François Porchez! Porchez has designed logos and typefaces for some of the most famous French cultural icons, including Le Monde, Moulin Rouge, France Télécom, La Banque Postale, Air France and the Paris Metro.

Porchez is an honorary President of the Association Typographique Internationale (the leading organization for type design), and regularly conducts type design workshops all over the world. He is also the founder of the French social network Le Typographe and has won numerous prizes for his typefaces, including the prestigious Prix Charles Peignot.

Porchez will present a 40 minute lecture on his work, followed by a 20 minute bilingual (French and English) question and answer session. Please join us for a speaker reception after the event.
