  1. If I’m not mistaken, there’s a bit of Gill Sans in there (NOWHERE, last picture).

  2. Absolutely correct, Stéphane! We don’t add it to the credits, because this post focuses on the catalog/poster designed by Madella, Falcone & Radaelli. The card with Gill Sans is one of the artworks designed by the participants of LPW19.
