The collective exhibition Objets trouvés was held in 2023 at Cité de l’Architecture et du Patrimoine in Paris, curated by Barrault Pressacco.
The accompanying catalogue and poster, published by New Moon, invite readers to think collectively about the subjects of reuse and repurposing of materials in order to add a necessary cultural and disciplinary dimension. This project brings together forty-two international practices to speculate on the transformation of a series of objects, and builds new, indulgent and poetic views with the material heritage that surrounds us.
Designed by République Studio and typeset in LL Unica77 and Simon Mono. The publication (104 pages, 230×305 mm) was printed by Chirat on Fedrigoni Arena White Rough.

The uppercase R has a straight leg…? Is this a new stylistic alternate for Unica77? I don’t recall seeing this in their specimen document.
Confirmed: the straight-legged R wasn’t included in the initial release. It was added sometime after 2018, and can be found in Stylistic Set 2.
