Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner” is a talk series held at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp. Since 2019, it has been hosting public lectures, debates, and book presentations, with Tim Ingold and Victoria Browne among their guests.

Designer Stephanie Specht was in charge of the visual identity. She developed a series of posters featuring title, venue and date set in Neue Haas Unica Medium and “Art Talk” in Coign 47 Bold, while the names of the speakers stand out with a diverse range of typefaces. All in all, Specht designed at least fifty different posters, almost always with different typefaces. Her eclectic approach adds a vibrant flair to the design, which is renewed for every event. Shown in this post is a selection of twelve posters. See the image captions for the respective font IDs.
