Braque Typeface

For this edition, we invited participants to interpret not only a number but also a paper. The result is a striking collective exploration of a deceptively simple question: how does colour make you feel? Each page reflects a personal encounter with one of Fedrigoni’s many papers, expressed through hue as well as through qualities of tactility, density, brightness and surface response.

Fedrigoni 365 2026 is presented as thirteen individual books, each a chromatic chapter within a wider spectrum. Placed together, their covers form a complete colour wheel, a deliberate and elegant reflection of the complexity and emotional range of colour itself. Inside, each book showcases a curated selection of papers, similar in tone yet strikingly different in character and finish. Smooth contrasts with rough, coated with uncoated, pearlescent with matte. Every surface highlights a unique facet of the Fedrigoni offering and the wide breadth of creative interpretation it invites.

This edition acts as a daily meditation on the power of material choice. From January through December, you will encounter papers that feel warm or cool, soft or sharp, bold or muted. Each carries its own emotional resonance and reveals how even subtle differences in material can influence thought and feeling. Creative choices do more than communicate; they stir memory, trigger sensation and shape lasting emotional responses. My idea is an interpretation of five scorching days in Puglia with celeste azzurro skies, using the fumage technique.
