Théâtre musical de Besançon — Identity
Le Théâtre musical de Besançon (dir. Loïc Boissier) was created in 2008: it occupies Besançon Municipal Theater, an exceptional building by Claude-Nicolas Ledoux. The theater is designed according to a very innovative circular plan for the time (1786), which made it possible, in Ledoux's initial project, to see the scene from everywhere. This aspect is represented in a famous engraving, “View of the Besançon Theater in an eye”. This eye and the circle are the basis of the visual identity that I designed for the Theater. To illustrate the richness and variety of its programming, an extensive color code (which covers the entire spectrum) makes it possible to identify the different registers. The character used is the Bodoni ITC, from Sumner Stone, my favorite digital revival of the typeface cut by Giambattista Bodoni in the same year as the construction of this theater. It’s been progressively replaced by my own revival, shown here in the logotype : Mononi, a mono-linear Bodoni.

Annual poster of Hangar 23, a theater in Rouen dedicated to dance, theater, circus and world / urban music. The theater is located on the port of Rouen, surrounded by (and partly built with) containers. These containers inspired the visual identity of the theater : the wordmark is set in a special weight of Garaje 0703 Monospace Black, in a frame that takes the shape of the facade of the building.
