n°50 — A Site: The Palace of Typographic Masonry

By Thierry Chancogne

The “About” section of the Palace of Typographic Masonry website reads as follows:

“The Palace of Typographic Masonry was established as a foundation on May 15, 2018. The foundation pursues the following objectives:

1. Provide a physical and/or virtual environment for the creation of graphic design and a platform for the publication and presentation of associated work-graphic or otherwise;
2. Build a reference framework for graphic design;
3. Familiarize a diverse audience with a varied and relevant graphic design landscape;
4. Draw attention to graphic design as a unique discipline and profession;
5. Promote the recognition of individuals who have proven important to graphie design as a profession and/or the development of the field.”

In this edition of Faire, Thierry Chancogne and Richard Niessen have a palatial discussion, over the course of four epistolary exchanges, about the content, issues, and the principles of classification of this palace devoted to “the splendor and variety of graphic languages”—a place dedicated to the promotion, dissemination, and support of an open and adventurous approach to our discipline of graphism, graphic design, and typography.
