This stencil ruler presents a proposal for a didone typographic model style allowing the development of a variety of complementary versions on the same basis. The model is the result of a breakdown / synthesis of elementary forms from the alphabet and their interrelations, allowing the creation of a system that, in the logic of building piece-by-piece, simplifies the exploration of various typographic styles in the same category. Following the proposed model or discovering its possibilities, it is intended that the participants explore the message through graphic and ideographic potential of the alphabet, learning by doing and experiencing concepts of construction, shape, proportion, contrast, classification and spacing of the letters.

Participants:
Roberto Gamonal Arroyo; Sérgio Carvalhinho; Carolina Ferreira; Edileno Capistrano Filho; Otniel Luis; Natacha Pereira; Salomé Pinto; Rogério Ribeiro.
