Atelier national de recherche typographique (ANRT), 10 ans

The ANRT (Atelier National de Recherche Typographique) is a center of excellence where a unique expertise is developed in the fields of type design and editorial design. The exhibition “10 Years” highlights the various projects and numerous educational, academic, scientific, cultural, and professional partnerships carried out since 2013 by the ANRT team and its students.

The projects by student-researchers and the research programs, guided by the teaching staff, span diverse fields such as linguistics, epigraphy, archaeology, numismatics, and cartography, all with a common goal: to create new typographic tools that foster the circulation of knowledge in a digital environment.

These research efforts more broadly explore the relationship between typography, language, and learning, leading to investigations in areas such as the digital humanities—where typographic challenges abound and inspire fruitful collaborations with related disciplines—as well as studies on global writing systems, a major area of research at the ANRT, particularly through the Missing Scripts research program.
