Open to all
We’ve got a diverse group of people here, from absolute beginners to type design enthusiasts. Some of our attendees already create lettering pieces and alphabets for their clients.
We’ve set up a place where design professionals can learn about type design quickly. We often get the question: “I’m a graphic designer who’s never drawn fonts. Can I join?” Our answer is: “The amazing results on our website are mostly made by graphic designers who’ve never touched type design. Come over and let’s start!”
We also welcome attendees who have already taken other summer or evening courses. We offer them a programme designed to enrich their know-how, strengthen their rigour and develop their professionalism in developing more complete typeface families. They’re thrilled to learn more in depth with our team.
This diversity is the strength of the programme.
Instructors
During the summer programme, our instructors chat with each other every day to keep everyone updated and make sure everyone’s learning and growing as much as they can. Our team for Typeparis26 is a fantastic bunch of folks! We’ve got Jean François Porchez, the brilliant mind behind TypeParis, as well Léo Guibert, Greg Lindy, Ruggero Magrì, Mathieu Réguer, Gina Serret, Malou Verlomme. They’re all going to make this event a real treat! Special sessions planned with Rainer Erich Scheichelbauer from Glyphs. Our instructors are absolute legends! They go above and beyond to make sure you learn and grow. They genuinely care about your success!
Guest critics
In addition to our regular instructors, we’ll be having some special guests come over to spend a day with attendees. They’ll be reviewing each typeface project one by one, giving us their expert feedback. Until we announce the guest critics for 2026, recall that guests for 2025 has been Cecilia del Castillo Daza (MX-SP), Ramiro Espinoza (ARG-NL), Diana Ovezea (RO), Albert-Jan Pool (NL-D).
