Latent Type

AI tools for image generation and manipulation are developing very fast. Yet, their utility for designing typography remains limited. ‘Latent Type’ explores different ways of working with Text-to-Image models – as one of the most recent additions to said tools. It analyzes available settings, inputs and finetuning options, both with the aim of creating experimental letter shapes as well as fonts. It moreover explores the role of human and artificial intelligence in a shared design process.
