Laura Meseguer's one-hour presentation was very well attended and the audience specially the design schools' faculty and director were deeply interested in the project and its relevance to the context of this public art school. Badalona is a city attached to Barcelona, separated by the Besòs River. It's full of immigrants from the Maghrib living there.

We hope that we will be making the final presentation and exhibition of this project there when the work is complete and ready to share.

Laura is member of one of the design teams of the Typographic Matchmaking in the Maghrib project, working on the development of the Qandus font family. She bring is her Spanish background and her experience as a Latin lettering artists and type designer to the mix.
