Type System

The type system is built around a bold, condensed primary typeface that mimics the urgency of warehouse stamps and shipping labels. A quieter secondary face handles curatorial text, creating a clear hierarchy between loud, directive cues and slower reading moments. Scale shifts, tight tracking, and blocky typelocks are used like stickers on a crate—stacked, overlapped, and repeated to reinforce the feeling of movement, storage, and constant handling.

Crate Concept

The crate becomes the central visual metaphor: a container, a boundary, and a stage. Graphic “crates” made of lines, boxes, and framing devices hold type the way wooden boxes hold artworks, sometimes neatly, sometimes askew. Across posters, labels, and signage, these crate forms slip between functional object and graphic device, making the whole exhibition feel like a storeroom laid bare.
