Fire Station Artists' Studios offers residencies, workspaces and resources for visual artists in Dublin, based in a former fire station. We worked with them to create their 2024 yearbook which would showcase the highlights of the year, from awards and residencies, to the facilities, workshops and cultural events. A large A3 format and a bespoke display stencil typeface, created especially for this year’s publication helped the yearbook cover stand out in cultural spaces around Dublin. The new stencil typeface allowed for spray painted and screen printed typography and textures which when combined with other mark making techniques hinted at the hands-on nature of the art and craft practice in the studio.
