Kathrin Teh (IDEA Grad 2023) wins the 2021 RGD Student Trailblazer Award with 'Type à la Mode'
Congratulations to Kathrin Teh (IDEA Grad 2023) for winning the 2021 RGD Student Trailblazer Award with 'Type à la Mode'.
“Since the 80s, typography has been a major player in the fashion world. Consumers wear their logo engulfed pieces with pride, feeling as though they have joined an elite and exclusive club. With the surge of the Hypebeast movement in recent years, typographic logos are all the more abundant—and important—for high-fashion brands. In this book, you will learn about the iconic typefaces used in these luxury brands and their fabulous designers.” writes Kathrin.
The photography and logos are all taken from the brand's websites.

About The RGD
Through the Association of Registered Graphic Designers (the RGD), Canadian designers exchange ideas, educate and inspire, set professional standards and build a strong, supportive community dedicated to advocating for the value of design.
Representing over 4,100 design professionals, including firm owners, freelancers, managers, educators and students, the RGD was created in 1996 by an Act of the Ontario Legislature (Bill Pr 56) and is the only graphic design association in North America to have this type of legislation.
The Certified RGD designation is a signal of quality and competence to the profession, public and government. Successful candidates have met a rigorous set of standards that includes documented levels of relevant, professional education and experience as well as competence in the areas of business, design principles, research, accessible design and ethics demonstrated through the successful completion of the RGD’s certification process.
Our vision is for a graphic design profession that is broadly valued for its contribution to life, commerce and society.
