Le Sirk Festival #7
Tempel Softland is the latest release by Production Type. Drawn by Leipzig-based type designer Reymund Schröder as a variation of his Tempel Grotesk with soft corners and more condensed proportions, it was added to Production Type’s LAB in three tight styles: Condensed, Ultra Condensed and Compressed.
Superscript² from Lyon used a beta version for the visual identity of Sirk Festival. Since 2016, this annual celebration of electronic music takes place in Dijon, the center of the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region in eastern France. The seventh edition was divided into three series of events, in spring, summer, and fall of 2022, featuring a roster of around forty artists. Venues ranged from a cosy houseboat (the Péniche Cancale) and a roofed sports ground (the Boulodrome Municipal Couvert) to a former military base at Aéroport Dijon-Bourgogne: once the home to Mirage fighter jets, the hangars now serve as peaceful dancefloors, with the walls shaking from the techno and house beats.
Tempel Softland is used in caps from its least narrow style, the Condensed. It’s paired with the number 7, shown in various custom drawn styles. Supporting text is set in Eurostile Bold Extended, likewise in all caps.

Each of the three event series was presented in a different color: green for spring, yellow for summer, and a mix of pink and turquoise for fall.
