Enric Jardi
Enric Jardí is a graphic designer committed to his occupation. He constantly thinks about the functions of design and uses his web page to analyse the projects carried out with a personal and ironic point of view of the image and graphic world. He is specialised in editorial design and typography and carries out an important role as a teacher in two Catalan universities and since 2005 has chaired the ADG-FAD Association of Art Directors and Graphic Designers.
After studying graphic design in Barcelona’s Escuela Elisava, he founded the studio Propaganda which he later abandoned in 1998 to pursue his artistic career individually. He constantly collaborates with his illustrations in the newspapers La Vanguardia and El Público. He also created Emecé´s literary stamp, the images for the Butxaca collections of grup62, of Mina editorial and book covers for Spain’s main editorials. One of his biggest projects arose in 2005 when, in collaboration with the editorial designer Marcus Villaça, he redesigned the American newspapers Chicago Reader and Boston Phoenix.
In 1991 he and other designers co-founded the typographic group Type-Ø-Tones which, since then, develops fonts distributed through FontShop. He is currently in charge of the Master Course in Advanced Typography at the Escuela Eina, in association with Barcelona’s Autonomous University and further teaches a Master in Art Direction and Advertisement at the University Ramón Llull. He recently published the book Veintidós consejos sobre tipografía y veintidós cosas que nunca debes hacer con las letras (Twenty-two typography tips and twenty-two things you should never do with letters), edited by Actar.
