Purchase TicketsWe’ve all seen it: A $70 million condo development with a cheap-looking logo, a restaurant that has an unreadable menu, and a kitchen brand that looks like every other kitchen brand.

How can typography be used in the landscape? This panel discussion with typography experts will answer these questions with insights, humor, and real-life examples.
