In the "Hot Type" suite, letterpress types, hand-carved in blocks of ice, protrude from the wall on the far side of the room, appearing in print on the opposing wall. John Bark and Charli Kasselbäck both work as graphic designers and are typography enthusiasts. "This suite is a heartfelt celebration of the very art of printing. That magical moment when the types meet a white paper – or as in this case, a wall of ice – and readable words, sentences and texts materialize. In this suite we have used Baskerville, Bodoni, Akzidenz and Futura - typefaces that have made an impression on our own lives."
