overview

A greeting / note card from our Union collection tracing the story of ‘&’, representing partnership, collaboration and coming together - union.

Union 6 compares contemporary sans serif fonts - ‘universal alphabet’ 1925 originally designed by Herbert Bayer for bauhaus dessau, Lubalin Graph 1974 by Herb Lubalin USA, Abadi 1987 by Ong Chong Wah Singapore/UK, and a one off by Whitebeam Studio.

From Pompeii graffiti 2000 years ago to today, the Union collection tells the story of ‘&’, a mark that evolved from the Latin ‘et’. Each card is designed to reflect its place in our timeline.
