Typeface (2009)
Director: Justine Nagan

English; Turkish subtitles
Typeface is a documentary-narrative that explores the intersection of design and traditional techniques in the digital era. Directed by Justine Nagan, it traces the history of movable wood type, which was central to design and printing until the widespread use of Macintosh in the 1980s.
The film centers on the Hamilton Wood Type and Printing Museum, located in a factory building in Wisconsin, USA, which began producing wood type in 1880 and was active until the 1980s when the Macintosh computer was introduced. It captures the unique experience developed around the museum, the only one in the USA with more than 1.5 million wooden letterforms produced, bringing together international artists, designers, and traditional print craftsmen.
