Ampersand Conference 2015
Homepage for Ampersand 2015 conference uses bold typesetting with animation to create deeper emphasis.
Richard Rutter and John Aizlewood of Clearleft used the Questa family — courtesy of the Questa Project by Martin Majoor and Jos Buivenga — to set the type for the Ampersand 2015 conference to be held in Brighton, UK in November.
The website mixes Questa’s sans-serif and serif styles to create a striking poster-esque form and superb reading experience. The letterforms mixed with striking block colour are offset with subtle animated embelleshments that allow the type to break within the space.
Content pages use Questa-sans for page headings and body copy, whilst section headings use Questa to create visual separation.
The use of Questa to highlight a sponsored event creates a striking differentiator between information types within the schedules page.
