Timbres Hip-hop au Canada

Ce projet était spécial pour notre studio — parce qu’on a grandi en écoutant ces artistes. Ce sont des pionniers culturels. Des héros. Des architectes du hip-hop canadien qui ont ouvert des portes et bâti les fondations de tout ce qui a suivi. Ce travail vise à honorer leur héritage et à faire en sorte que leurs histoires demeurent une partie essentielle de l’histoire culturelle du Canada.

Sur le plan visuel, nous avons misé sur des traitements graphiques et typographiques expressifs, inspirés des années 80 — audacieux, vibrants, sans compromis. Un clin d’œil à MuchMusic/MusiquePlus, une nostalgie chargée de l’énergie brute des débuts du hip-hop.

Ces timbres commémoratifs rendent hommage à trois figures marquantes : Maestro Fresh Wes, Michie Mee et Muzion. Chacun a contribué à définir un son résolument canadien, façonné par des rythmes et des influences venant de la Jamaïque, de Trinité-et-Tobago et d’Haïti.

Maestro Fresh Wes () a propulsé le hip-hop canadien sur le devant de la scène grâce à des succès révolutionnaires qui ont marqué l’industrie.

Michie Mee () a fusionné le rap avec le dancehall et le reggae, créant un son iconique qui a redéfini le genre.

Le groupe montréalais Muzion () () a superposé le français, l’anglais et le créole haïtien — transformant la culture à chaque couplet.

Héritage. Culture. Histoire.

As we approach the design of the 70th issue of Ground Landscape Quarterly Magazine, we’re taking a moment to reflect on its origins in 2008. This image shows typotherapy’s creative director holding a prototype of the magazine, standing in front of the creative board displaying mock spreads for the concept presentation before the inaugural issue launch.

typotherapy designed a dynamic, ever-transforming visual identity, and graphic language for the Magdalene Odundo: A Dialogue with Objects exhibition at the Gardiner Museum. Drawing inspiration from Odundo’s description of her pieces as “dancers” and the exhibition’s overlapping dialogues between objects, the design features six unique type arrangements, six vibrant colour palettes, and applications ranging from backlit posters and a large-scale banner at the museum’s entrance to marketing materials, brochures with floor plans, and gallery didactics. This evolving system reflects Odundo’s artistry, celebrating individuality, rhythm, and expression.
