Journal
In our blog, we tell stories about what we’re up to at the studio, our clients and the projects we are involved in.
Here you can find complete case studies, photo reports or simply accounts of the beautiful things made by the creatives we work with.
Interview with Joana Correia (Part 1)
Porto-based Joana Correia, founder of Nova Type Foundry, has been a great inspiration. Joana has helped us grow as a design studio since we first sat down here on Rua da Aliança just over two years ago.
With her support, we have worked on ideas for new projects, learned so much about Type Design and the Type Foundries business, and met and maintained contact with many of the great talents of this international community.

She works as a trainer, consultant and researcher, specialising in producing raw materials and creating sustainable production chains from the environmental, social and economic points of view.
