About TMD Journal Prìomh Dhleastanas: Iris
Teacsa an Leabhair: Bidh TMD Journal a' sgrùdadh dealbhadh chlò-thìopaichean chan ann mar sgeadachadh lèirsinneach ach mar shiostam structaraichte a chuireas brìgh air dòigh. Mar fhreagairt do chleachdadh farsaing chruthan-clò didseatach mar mhaoin aig ìre uachdar, tha am foillseachadh ag ath-shuidheachadh clò-eòlas mar mheadhan airson smaoineachadh agus conaltradh a thogail. Bidh gach caibideil a' taisbeanadh siostam clò tùsail tro a bhun-bheachd, a loidsig structarail agus a cho-theacsa iomchaidh, a' sealltainn mar a thèid co-dhùnaidhean clò-thìopaidh eadar-theangachadh gu cruth agus cleachdadh. Tha an iris a' toirt seachad frèam airson clò a thuigsinn mar phàirt ghnìomhach ann am branndadh agus conaltradh.

Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- TMD Journal positions typefaces as systems that organise meaning rather than visual styles. Each typeface is examined through its conceptual premise, structural logic and applied context within a unified publication.
By combining original type development with editorial analysis, the journal establishes a framework where typography is not presented as form, but understood as a system that shapes communication, identity and interpretation. - Dimensions & Packaging
- 210 × 297 mm (A4)
52 pages - Tags
- Typography, Editorial Design, Type Design, Print Publication, Typographic Research, Visual Communication, Branding System, Independent Publishing, Communication Design, Design Systems
- Production Technology
- The publication is constructed as a sequence of chapters, each dedicated to a distinct type system. The editorial structure follows a consistent progression from concept to structure to application.
This method translates abstract typographic ideas into a readable system, allowing relationships between design decisions and communication outcomes to become visible through use rather than explanation. - Design Challenge
- The primary challenge was translating conceptual typographic research into a coherent editorial system. Typefaces informed by historical structures needed to function within a contemporary format while maintaining clarity and usability.
Balancing conceptual depth with readability required continuous iteration. Maintaining consistency across multiple type systems while preserving their individual logic was critical to achieving both coherence and distinction. - Research
- Type of Research
Practice based research in typographic systems and communication design
Objective
To examine how typefaces construct meaning and function within branding and editorial contexts
Methodology
Comparative analysis of historical typography and experimental type development
Process and Tools
Archival references, typographic specimens and digital type design software
Outcome
A publication demonstrating how typographic structure influences communication
Impact
Provides a framework for integrating typography into branding systems - Inspiration
- In the digital era, typefaces are increasingly consumed as visual surfaces detached from the ideas they were originally designed to express. Historically, typography functioned as a medium for structuring thought and communication.
This project begins with a question: can type operate again as a system that carries meaning rather than appearance. Drawing from typographic history and calligraphic traditions, TMD Journal reconsiders the role of type as an active structure within communication. - Project Duration
- The typefaces were developed between March 2023 and September 2025. Editorial research and design were conducted in parallel.
The journal was completed and published in November 2025 in Kamakura, Japan. - Operation Flow
- The journal is read sequentially through chapters, each focusing on a typeface. Readers move from conceptual explanation to structural breakdown and then to application examples.
This structure allows readers to actively understand how typographic decisions influence meaning, shifting the experience from passive viewing to analytical reading. - Image Credits
