caractere libre

Working inventively with typographic forms and producing his own font collection, Geoffroy Tobe put together a book called “Caractere Libre” (Typeface Laboratory). Sophisticatedly bound it includes nine experimental projects that each investigates a distinctive style of a typeface. Tobe’s creative approach and his clever application of nonstandard techniques and materials make his book very invigorating and captivating. There is also a distinctive sculptural quality to many of the fonts he designed.
