Amsterdam University Library lettering. 23 languages, 6 writing systems. Over a thousand meters of lettering. Each line is 46 cm tall, 21 lines from top to bottom. 3D printed and then a metal coating. A lot of people worked on this: MVSA architects did all the buildings and roof, and the concept of this facade. Engineering: Nedcam, Binx Smartility, Fiberneering, JC Straaltechniek and Vero Metal. The lettering design and layout: LettError. With export support from Aleksandra Samulenkova (Greek), Anya Danilova (Cyrillic), Bahman Eslami (Arabic) and Daniel Grumer (Hebrew and Yiddish).
