I’ve listened to people gush about the TYPO design conference for years, but since it was always in Europe, I could never manage the funds to attend. At last, conference organizer FontShop International has taken pity on its admirers across the pond. In April 2012, TYPO will take place in San Francisco.
Erik Spiekermann and Kali Nikitas will lead the conference, which will host varied speakers from America and Europe. You can also expect typographic workshops and films.
Pricing has not yet been announced, but registration will begin on December 1, 2011. Prices will be lower for anyone who registers before January 1, 2012. There will also be discounted student tickets.
To be notified of conference details, visit the main website, follow the conference on Twitter @TYPOSF, or like its Facebook page.
