Slanted Experimental Type 4.0

Slanted Publishers

Following the success of the first three editions, Slanted Experimental Type 4.0 continues the series’ exploration of innovative approaches in typography and graphic design. The new edition was created in collaboration with students from Dortmund University of Applied Sciences and Arts, led by Prof. Lars Harmsen and Andreas Ruhe, and presents entirely new content that pushes creative boundaries.

The publication highlights design strategies that embrace accidents, imprecision, and unconventional methods. It showcases typefaces developed through unique concepts and systems, from AI-generated and experimental fonts to variable type design.

Slanted Experimental Type 4.0 invites readers to explore new territories, rethink familiar processes, and challenge the lines we draw—both in design and beyond.
