This book was produced in partnership with RMIT’s Master of Communication Design program

‘You suddenly become extremely fascinated by the typography within the book and feel you must study it in considerable depth. The body text is set in an unusually bold weight, you find this exhilarating.’

—Matthew Campisi

Invisible Ink: Critical Perspectives on Typography is a collection of essays written about typography in response to some of the seminal typographic texts: Beatrice Warde’s The Crystal Goblet, Jan Tschichold’s The Principles of the New Typography and Walter Benjamin’s Unpacking My Library. These critical essays explore the intricacies of typography that shape the way we experience the written word, without us even realising it.

This anthology is wholly the work of RMIT students: It was written by the Master of Communication Design; curated by Bowen Street Press (Master of Writing and Publishing); and designed and produced collaboratively by both programs.
