A lunchtime talk on typography and education presented during TDC69 Aotearoa: The World's Best Typography Join Abbey Barlow and George Hajian as they talk through their typographic projects, share their journey through the undergrad programme at AUT and discuss the potential of type and typography in developing high-quality student projects. This lunchtime talk is presented during TDC69 Aotearoa: The World's Best Typography. — Abbey Barlow recently completed her Postgraduate degree in Communication Design, with a minor in experimental surface design, at Auckland University of Technology. In 2023, she won a prestigious Young Ones TDC award for her typographic work ‘AB3D’.
Abbey explores colour, texture, and 3D objects in her work, consistently returning to the tactile experience of designing physical items. Her passion lies at the intersection of various design disciplines, including industrial and spatial design. She enjoys experimenting with both new and traditional fabrication techniques, blending them with her graphic design background.
Other achievements include a Bronze Best Award for her publication ‘D.O.S.D’ and a Silver Award for ‘AB3D’. Abbey currently works as a Junior Designer at advertising agency Tuckshop, in Tāmaki Makaurau. — George Haijan is a designer/artist/educator based in Tāmaki Makaurau. He was born in Beirut (Lebanon) with Armenian ancestry and emigrated to Aotearoa in 2001. After finishing his Postgraduate Diploma in Graphic Design at Massey University, he moved to Tāmaki Makaurau for his MFA and Doctorate in Fine Arts from Elam School of Fine Arts.
George has a diverse working background in the design and publishing industry in New Zealand and Lebanon. He regularly collaborates with historian Brent Coutts to publish the limited-edition Queer Art Narratives publication series. His main artistic output involves collage and screen-printing, where he uses found printed materials from popular print culture to disrupt signifiers of power and embodiment, and to subvert their significance.
George is a Senior Lecturer at Auckland University of Technology and teaches across the Communication Design programme in the School of Art and Design, Te Kura Toi a Hoahoa. He also dabbles in calligraphy and can read/write in three different scripts: Armenian, Arabic, and Latin.

As a famous scenic spot, the Sky Tower is basically a must visit place! The restaurant is also worth a try, as there are different packages available at different times. It is more convenient to book in advance on the website

SEA LIFE Kelly Tarlton's Aquarium

Family-Friendly Attractions

The venue is slightly smaller, but the content is still very rich, and rainy days do not affect the fun at all. It is very suitable for playing with the nearby Mission Bay. The souvenirs inside are very cute and I bought several plush 😘

Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour

Auckland War Memorial Museum

Museums

The whole experience was great, and it&#39;s a great place to learn about New Zealand&#39;s history and culture. The museum is quite large and worth a good half-day visit. There are many interactive exhibits, especially suitable for taking children out. There are also Chinese services, which is recommended.

Auckland Domain

iQOO🐮

Auckland Central Park is not like the common landscape parks in the city. It is more like a natural forest. The winding tree-lined paths and the tall trees on both sides make you feel like you are walking into the original green field, with thick fallen leaves and soft soil under your feet. The air is filled with the fragrance of plants, which is very suitable for jogging, walking the dog or just taking a quiet walk. There are also several sculptures and small bridges hidden along the way, which adds a little fun. Although it is not far from the city, you can completely escape the rhythm of the city once you enter the park.

Mount Eden

Mountain climbing

Although Mount Eden is not high, you can overlook the whole of Auckland from the top of the mountain, and the view is particularly wide. The remains of the crater are clearly visible, covered with green grass, a peaceful green. It is not difficult to walk all the way up. You can also see sheep grazing on the hillside. Their leisurely appearance makes people can&#39;t help but take a few more photos. The wind on the top of the mountain is very strong, but it is also very fresh, which makes people feel particularly bright. It is a good place that does not require tickets or planning, but can leave very deep memories.
