The visual identity of the 2020 edition takes up the initial logo of the Montreal Clown Festival, in a deconstructed way: the shapes are associated, rearranged, and produce a movement on the surface of the visual. The association of the two typefaces brings a playful side to the logo while remaining legible. The visual can be used on black or white backgrounds. The colors of the shapes are inspired by old clown show posters.

Dia [edit: it’s Founders Grotesk] and Solide Mirage are paired and mixed throughout.

  1. It appears to be Founders Grotesk by any means.

  2. Absolutely! Thanks for catching this, Jay.

    The big caps in the second image are from another typeface, but it’s not Dia either.
