Footnotes is the periodical bulletin of applied research in type design, produced by the Swiss digital type foundry La Police. The third issue (Issue C) features: the second part of research series focused on Ladislas Mandel's typefaces for telephone directories (including Linéale, Lusitania & Nordica) as well as text by Coline Sunier & Charles Mazé, who share their work on the visual identity for CAC Brétigny, a project which also produced the typefaces LARA and BALI. Type designer Nicolien van der Keur writes about the production of typewriter type styles and their influence on letterpress typefaces; French designer Alaric Garnier shares the identity he built for the May Gallery in New Orleans, drawing on a sign painting apprenticeship and exploring the efficacies needed to address a shoestring budget; and Dan Reynolds retraces the origins of Akzidenz-Grotesk. The issue also includes a selection of in-progress type projects by the contributors of issue C and its future successor, issue D. “... [A] critical piece of dialogue in the contemporary type landscape... this third edition delivers more robust and innovative thinking.” —Typograph.her
