Home to Australia's most sought-after brands, James Street is a lifestyle destination filled with boutique stores, world-class dining and one of Australia’s best hotels.

The previous website struggled to support the large tenant base, had mobile responsiveness issues and felt dated, making it difficult for visitors to discover what James Street offers.

The final solution enhanced the brand's visual identity, refined the UI/UX to support the growing tenant base and stripped back visual noise to emphasise the content within the website.

Based in Paris, Klima is a bilingual magazine, existing both in print and online, which “proposes a collective reflection based on a theme specific to each issue”. From their website:

Klima gives a voice to individuals who are conscious, creative and singular, reflecting an epoch and its issues, while also revealing the multi-disciplinary nature of the artistic, activist and academic worlds. Klima aims to bring together different disciplines in a single space, emphasising their transversal aspects.

The magazine logo uses Marlfield. In the interior, headlines are set in Gaya, and Times New Roman and Nimbus Roman Mono are used for copy. The sans serif used for navigation is LL Medium.

Musée du Débarquement Arromanches is a museum dedicated to the memory of D-Day in the Second World War, located in Arromanches in Normandy, France. It was initially built in 1954 facing the sea where the artificial harbour Mulberry B (B for British) operated. After almost 70 years of activity, a new building opened in 2023. The new museum was designed by the Projectiles architecture agency.

The graphic design for the permanent exhibition was done by WA75 (Laurent Mészáros & Yorel Cayla), using BN Times Gothic, LL Medium and Routed Gothic.

Each sequence in the exhibition is indicated by a solid white area. The imposing titles set in all-caps BN Times Gothic are the result of a process of analysis and synthesis, to keep just one title for all languages. Text is set in LL Medium, which functions as a true text font, sharing common roots with titles. The many maps produced by the agency are set in Routed Gothic, reminiscent of maps design with a pantograph font.

From design studio Huber/Sterzinger:

In A–Z: Harvard University Graduate School of Design, graduates of each year share drawings, renders, collages, illustrations, excerpts, abstracts, models, captions, diagrams, and vignettes representative of projects and research produced in their final year at the Harvard GSD. At its core this alphabetical record features a catalog of rich and varied student work from the disciplines of architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning and design, and design engineering, while photo interludes placed throughout lend insight into precedents and references that situate the work beyond the GSD. A–Z, itself an assemblage of voices from every corner of the School, offers fleeting glimpses into a diverse pedagogical culture driven by a community of designers committed to shaping the future of design through many perspectives and approaches.

Non-Referential Architecture, ideated by Valerio Olgiati, written by Markus Breitschmid and published by Park Books:

The new revised edition of Valerio Olgiati’s and Markus Breitschmid’s widely acclaimed manifesto for a new approach in architecture in a world free of ideologies and, therefore, references: a must-read for anyone interested in architecture today.

Designed by Bruno Margreth, typeset in an early version of LL Medium (back then called RH Inter).

The book was also published in Italian and German, as Architettura Non-Referenziale and Nicht-Referenzielle Architektur.

Bettina is the first monograph to showcase the work of the previously unsung artist Bettina Grossman, whose wildly interdisciplinary practice spanned photography, sculpture, textile, cinema, drawing, and more. In 2019, the Franco-Moroccan photographer Yto Barrada exhibited some pieces of Bettina at LMCC's, in New York, which allowed the rediscovery of her work. Barrada gains the confidence of Bettina who opens for the first time her archives in which Yto Barrada and Gregor Huber will delve for almost three years. They imagine a book with the complicity of Bettina until the latter's death on November 2, 2021, at the age of 94, which brings to light a major work produced by an iconic artist. The book has been edited by Yto Barrada & Gregor Huber and designed by Huber/Sterzinger using LL Medium.

From Huber/Sterzinger:

An eccentric personality fully dedicated to her art, Bettina lived in the famous Chelsea Hotel from 1968 until her death in late 2021. In her tiny studio, she produced and accumulated a considerable body of work, much of which has remained unseen and unpublished until now. Her interests ranged from geometric and abstract studies, drawn from observations of people on the street, to pieces that transformed language into graphic, abstract “verbal forms.”

Bettina was the winner of the Luma Rencontres Dummy Book Award Arles 2020 and is copublished by Aperture and Éditions Xavier Barral.

From Studio Ard:

Mercier’s revival is faithful to the model, but has some added OpenType features to create diversity with the modules. The other typefaces used in the magazine are the standard LL Medium by Robert Huber and Tate Etcentury Mono, likewise drawn by Mercier.

Pre-release use of LL Heymland including headline-specific custom ligatures for the 49th issue of the British art magazine Tate Etc. (summer 2020), designed by Studio Ard (Guillaume Chuard and Daniel Kang Yoon Nørregaard), London.

LL Heymland was designed by Yevgen Anfalov and released with Lineto in September 2020.
