Van Gogh’s Dream is an app developed exclusively for the iPad by digital publisher MNESTRA (Manufacture Numérique d’Éditions Strasbourgeoise) to raise funds for the Van Gogh Institute.
At the time of its release, Van Gogh’s Dream was one of the first app designed with Adobe’s Digital Publishing Suite, enabling implementation of interactive contents such as videos, HD pictures, sounds and a few more features, allowing the user to experience and appreciate the different aspects and characteristics of the work of Van Gogh in a sensitive way.
Regarding typefaces, MNESTRA’s former art director Loïc Sander chose a neat palette: Tungsten for titles, drop initials and interactive features; his own still-in-progress typeface Trianon (then called Bréviaire) for text, and Cogito for captions.
