  • does typo chaotic make use of artificial intelligence?

    As far as creating the posters is concerned, that hasn’t happened to date. In fact, typo isn’t particularly impressed by AI. There has been some experimentation with it for the website, but even that has hardly been used.

  • difference in colour

    The difference in colour between a screen and a print is caused by completely different colour reproduction techniques. Your screen emits light via pixels that combine red, green and blue light points, whilst printed material absorbs and reflects light via layers of ink on paper.

    Screens use an additive colour system in which light is added to create colours. The more light from the three primary colours is added, the brighter and whiter the result becomes. Paper works exactly the opposite way: it absorbs certain wavelengths of light and reflects others back to your eye.

    The light source also plays an important role. Your monitor has a constant, bright light source, whilst printed material depends on ambient light. Artificial light, daylight or fluorescent lighting all influence how you perceive the printed colours.

    The surface of the material makes the difference even greater. Coated paper reflects light differently from matt paper, and textiles absorb colours more strongly than plastic. These physical properties mean that the same colour looks different on different materials.

  • are the posters printed on FSC paper?

    Of course. All posters are printed on FSC-certified paper. To reduce its environmental impact this is important. Also, the packaging is made from FSC-certified cardboard wherever possible.

  • no reviews?

    Why doesn’t typo chaotic have any reviews on its own website? Because Typo believes that many of these reviews are completely inaccurate. For example, I recently bought a bike from what the reviews claimed was one of the best bike shops in Berlin. It turned out to be a huge disappointment. After the sale, the owner wasn’t nearly as friendly anymore and the service was poor. After a few visits, it became clear that I wasn’t the only one who’d had a bad experience with that bike shop. And yet they had some truly brilliant reviews. This example isn’t an isolated one. The chair from the Swedish furniture store, which was supposedly so good according to the reviews, turned out not to be good at all. And that brilliant little restaurant with 4.5 stars turned out to be downright bad. As the owner of this website, typo doesn’t want to fall into this review trap either, which is why there are no reviews on the website itself.
