For Canadian Style, I’ve also created plenty of signage. Above are the profiles for the two featured artists (I’ll post the text in another post): designer Sonia Chow and photographer Marc Xavier LeBlanc (who also created all the Canadian Style music mixes — more on that later). Marc’s card is actually at the same scale as the others, but a bit longer. As with the menu, fonts for English text are in Helvetica Neue 75 Bold, with Japanese text in Osaka.
Another component of the event is an interactive installation, “Red + White/Read + Write,” that was conceived by Sonia. More on that in a separate post. What you see here is the instruction card that will be put on the wall.
As you all know, we have some Canadian Style t-shirts for sale (which you can of course purchase online), and so a small card for that.
Finally, anyone who has been to Cafe Pause has probably noticed that they usually keep one or two 4-seat tables reserved for larger groups, and so I made a sign for that also.

Please, Jean, no more of this fucking leaf! It’s blocking our view of Tokyo!
Hey, watch the measure and leading on those signs, Jean! Looks like it’s getting a bit tricky to read. If Marc’s sign is the longest, why not base it on Sonia’s sign point size + measure but just make it taller and then make Sonia’s accordingly? I’ll make no comments on the leaf and its seeming ubiquity…
The leaf will be gone soon enough, and regular Tokyo transmissions will resume as normal.
The people have spoken! Leave the leaf.
Hey. You (canadian style) are on the SHIFT and the TSIG blog. YOu should blog about it. You should always blog about being blog. If you don’t, the whole post-modern information society will collapse, due to lack of circulation ;)
Momus is just jealous. I like the leaf. Where’s my Maple Milk?
