Meeting Point 42 Kyiv Metro Fonts
Meeting Point 42 Kyiv Metro Fonts
Echoing the events of the Second World War, in 2022 the Kiev metro will become a fallout shelter for thousands of people, marking a new fragment of history.
Integrated into the architecture of the stations, the lettering of the Kiev metro reveals the memories of the city. This typographic heritage inspired the Kyiv Metro Fonts research project, which led to the publication of the KTF Metro typeface family. This project aims to preserve the typographic memory of Kiev, reviving historic letterforms while serving to raise funds for Ukraine.
A meeting, a rendezvous, a meeting place, a gathering space: with MeetingPoint, La Cambre encourages exchanges around a guest who is visiting a studio and who gives us the pleasure of an open talk. On Monday 20 January 2025, the typography workshop invites designer Yevgeniy Anfalov. Born in Kiev in 1986, he is co-founder of Kyiv Typefoundry. A meeting not to be missed.
