Type West is a postgraduate certificate program in type design available in-person in San Francisco or online to students worldwide. The program is offered by the Letterform Archive, and when the yearlong course finishes, student typeface projects are celebrated with a printed specimen book. The 2023 edition of this collective type specimen features the work of both the In-Person and Online cohorts, showcasing an array of type designs that reflect the creativity, skill, and diversity of the program's participants. This specimen book is a valuable resource for typographers, graphic designers, educators, and students. It provides a snapshot of current approaches to type design and serves as both a tool for study and a historical record of contemporary practice and type design pedagogy.
