the Werkplaats Typografie/Isia Urbino international summer school workshop — which took place in Urbino, Italy — proposed to develop a project around the theme ‘language and its translation’. the project presented was the Dictionary of cognates, a booklet of visual comparisons between words from different languages that share the same etymological root. 22 comparisons were made using a system that transforms the proportions of the letters based on their order and frequency in a group of cognates.
