What if the work is the resistance? with Flavia Zimbardi
The future of type isn’t abstract or inevitable. It’s being shaped every day through concrete decisions: who gets recognition, what gets made, and which structures we reinforce. In this talk, Flavia Zimbardi traces the choices that gradually expanded her practice, exploring how collaboration, publishing, and community-building became her way of navigating and challenging the field—and what she learned about designing systems as deliberately as the typefaces themselves.
