In 2006 we were commissioned with designing the corporate design, catalogue and publications of documenta 12, based on a global concept including the logo, printed matter, etc.
In terms of graphic design, the curator’s handwriting constitutes an integral part of the documenta 12’s corporate design. The tally marks derived from it represent the number 12 and serve as a signature alongside the functional typography with its focus on formal precision.
In keeping with the artistic concept, the graphic design reflects the idea of a temporary cultural space of action.
