'shape my language' exhibition, each card contains one single glyph with the font name above it and the unicode number below

'shape my language' is an exhibition showcasing the typographic contributions
of bruno maag from UK graphic design firm dalton maag studio. the show presents
typographic script systems developed by maag in various languages including latin,
cyrillic, arabic and indian glyphs. long chains of plastic cards hang from the ceiling,
each card containing a single glyph from one of his thirteen different dalton maag typefaces.

currently, they are dozens of different script systems used in the world. however,
bruno maag shares the belief that the task of a typeface designers' is not only to
visualize the emotion with which a message is spoken but also to ensure that the reader
can absorb the message with minimal distraction.

walking chair design gallery is presenting 'shape my language' until june 12 in vienna, austria.
