Well-Crafted Crafting Type in the Digital Age

Crafting Type in the Digital Age

Tickets £35 | Patron Tickets £25 

We’re Continuing our Summer Craft Series with something special, in collaboration with our new partners, Well-CraftedDiscover where handcraft meets technology in this immersive, collaborative workshop created for London Tech Week. Crafting Type in the Digital Age invites participants to slow down, work with their hands, and explore how analogue processes can inform digital innovation.

This engaging session explores the creative intersection of tactile making and digital design. You’ll begin by designing letterforms by hand, experimenting with shape, spacing, and rhythm, before contributing to a shared typeface that will be scanned and digitised. Along the way, the workshop encourages reflection on creativity in an AI-driven world—highlighting how slowness, experimentation, and materiality can deepen thinking and spark innovation.  We’ll also have drinks from Wednesday’s Domaine to enjoy as you go, so you can fully unwind and ease into the experience.

During the Workshop, You Will:
Design and construct unique letterforms using paper-based, analogue techniques.
Explore typographic principles including form, spacing, rhythm, and personality.
Collaborate with others to build a collective typeface.
See your work transformed from physical to digital through scanning and digitisation.

Session Format
Step 1 : Introduction and concept framing
Step 2 : Letter creation and hands-on experimentation
Step 3 : Assembly, digitisation, and group discussion

Duration: 1 hour 50 minutes
Materials: All supplies provided
