NPCU Typeface Design Overview

The NPCU Typeface Design is a specially crafted font created for the eponymous performative art installation by the artist P.G. Developed by CTP – Conversation Taking Place, this typeface incorporates unique design features such as ‘contextual alternates’ and includes two additional versions of each letter of the alphabet. These elements combine to produce a logo-like effect for all the written words within the installation.

Custom Design for Performance and Sport Themes

Designed to complement P.G.’s extensive performance installations, the NPCU Typeface Design reflects the themes of sport and performance. The typeface enhances the visual identity of the artworks by providing a distinct and dynamic typographic presence that resonates with the performative nature of the project.

Development Based on Diatype Mono

The NPCU Typeface Design is further developed from the base of ‘Diatype Mono,’ a typeface created by Abc Dinamo. This foundation allows the font to maintain a clean, monospaced structure while incorporating custom modifications that suit the artistic vision of P.G.’s installation.
