Context & Brief: To create a type specimen as a calendar, pairing Rufus, a musical symbol typeface, with Casus Pro, a serif for text.

Challenge: To showcase Rufus through complete musical scores, combining notation, text and a calendar system in one composition.

Solution & Concept: Twelve months — twelve compositions, each typeset from scratch using Rufus. The pieces were selected for their contrasting typesetting densities: intricate, densely set passages alternate with lighter, more spacious arrangements. Casus Pro provides headings and supporting text, unifying the twelve sheets.

Context & Brief: To research Lev Razgon’s biography, gather information from multiple sources and shape it into a cohesive narrative.

Challenge: To bring diverse biographical materials into a consistent layout while clearly distinguishing the main text, documents and supporting information.

Solution & Concept: A publication that immerses readers in Lev Razgon’s era through his biography, stories of those close to him, and interviews.
