scher designed bespoke typography for the event, creating a modified version of the font foundry gridnik that builds its letterforms from a network of lines and bars. the identity appears in an animation on the choice works website, and the custom type is also used on printed invitations. secondary typography is set in the standard foundry gridnik.
