Developing Norm No. 6

Type specimen of the Norm No. 11 by Detail Type Foundry, a type foundry run by the Japanese design studio Kamimura & Co.

The first releases in the collection are three new grotesques: Norm No. 6, Norm No. 11 and Norm No. 15. The Developing Norm series of type specimens for the collection was published in three different specimens, as were the typefaces. This book Developing Norm No. 11 consists of full-page graphics and text in Norm No. 11. Norm No. 11 has a straightforward, decisive and a geometric backbone.

The printing of this book has been designed to show the typeface clearly and all pages are printed on smooth coated paper. The book is printed using two colours, general black ink for reproducibility and special inks formulated for this type specimen, making it not only a practical type specimen, but also a conceptual art book.
