Symbiont (Prague, Czech Republic)
“Typography is a major Czech genre. This might be related to the need to give some content to visual and aesthetic messages.”
Symbiont is an organism living in permanent symbiosis with another organism. The name contains elements of those of Denisa Myšková and Ondřej Lím as well implying the relationship they have with their clients. It was inspired by a book of that name that was Myšková’s graduation project from the Academy of Applied Arts (AAAD) in Prague.

We have gathered designers who came to the concept of tactile design after having started out in the digital field, to demonstrate how tactile illustrations jumps off pages, billboards and screens.

Tony Benna (San Francisco, USA)
"with all of the shiny, glossed-over 3D work out there, people began to miss the feeling of a human touch."
This Is It Collective (London, UK)
