Great & Grand RumpusState Library of Queensland

Working with SLQ, White Light, and students from Brisbane primary and secondary schools, Inkahoots conducted participatory design typography workshops to create open source typefaces. These fonts became the basis of a new exhibition identity developed by Inkahoots.

The visual identity is an extension of the broader project’s community engagement process. It helps tell the exhibition’s story – playful, handmade, digital, and for and by young people.

The identity’s toolkit is crafted for use by the Library’s in-house design team, and the finished fonts are offered back to the students who helped create them, as well as shared with the general public.
