Teresa Piardi of Maxwell Studio worked with Wigrum in her design of a book about Palazzo Abatellis. Conceived by art and architecture writer Cloe Piccoli together with photographer Stefano Graziani, it was published by Humboldt Books:
Palazzo Abatellis, Palermo is a contemporary narrative, an artistʼs book, a surprising journey into a place that we thought we knew. Work began at dawn one Monday morning in September as part of the project entitled The Hidden City, with lights off and museum closed, in order to move through eras and cultures, ancient stories and contemporary visions; to observe works of art, architecture, saloni, courtyards and terraces. The narrative is triggered by the encounter with this unique place – thanks to its architecture coupled with the collections and displays created by Carlo Scarpa – presented through the contemporary vision of the authors.Wigrum Bold

Wigrum gets its groove on in the 2018 ad campaign for La Seine Musicale, a brand new music and arts center located on the river in western Paris. Colorful piles of names constitute this season's image and underscore the wide variety of the cultural offer for the months to come.Wigrum Bold

Wigrum was born in 2011, when Anouk Pennel and Raphaël Daudelin, from Montréal-based design studio Feed, were preparing the book design for Daniel Canty’s latest novel. Canty, a contemporary writer from Québec, writes in Wigrum about a mysterious character who moves at the border between fiction and reality, between Second World War time and present time, between Eastern and Western Europe. To typeset the book, Studio Feed created Wigrum, a sans serif with strong references to geometrical sans serifs of the 1930s, and also to their current influence.
Wigrum is especially representative of its designers’ will to add a “humane” tone to geometry. Thus, Wigrum features include straight, rational shapes, and at the same time all the required optical corrections for optimal reading comfort. Plenty of personality remains, however, in various details and unusual shapes for ‘W’, ‘g’, ‘R’ and ‘S’. Feed frequently ventures into type design: for almost 20 years, they have made the practice an essential part of their unique approach to commissions. Wigrum was their first commercial release.
