Kellenberger-White事务所以其俏皮的字体设计而闻名，该项目中设计团队设计了一系列新的26个字母椅，该作品将在 2018年伦敦设计节Landmark项目中展示。他们鼓励人们在这个城市中心的游乐场中进行探索、互动、运动并和文字产生联系。

Known for their playful approach to typefaces, Kellenberger-White has designed a new series of 26 alphabet chairs as a Landmark Project for London Design Festival 2018.Visitors are encouraged to explore, interact, move, and make words with the letters – a playground in the heart of the City.

这个装置也是对折叠金属的一次实验探索，打造出一套排版系统，设计师受到Bruno Munari的照片《 Seeking Comfort in an Uncomfortable Chair 》（1944）；Max Bill和Hans Gugelot的《Ulm stool》（1955）；以及Bruce McLean的Pose作品(1970s)启发，创造出了这一系列设计。其中每把椅子都被涂上了不同的颜色，这些涂料都采用工业金属制品的专用涂料，颜色选择丰富多样，从“国际橙”（曾用于旧金山的金门大桥）到“矢车菊蓝”（曾用于米德尔斯堡的运输桥）都应用到了作品中。

The installation is an experiment in folding metal to create a typographic system, and influenced by Bruno Munari’s photos, Seeking Comfort in an Uncomfortable Chair (1944), Max Bill and Hans Gugelot’s Ulm stool (1955), as well as Bruce McLean’s Pose works of the 1970s. Each chair is painted in a different colour, chosen from a specialist paint manufacturer used for industrial metalwork – from International Orange (used for San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge) to Cornflower Blue (the colour of Middlesbrough’s Transporter Bridge).

“该项目是一次对建筑和颜色的探索实验，联系了多种事物。整个设计既是一个游乐场地，也是一个字母；它既作为公共家具，也作为与人交流的装置。” Kellenberger White评论道。

Quote by Kellenberger–White:”This project is an experiment in construction and colour that tests and connects many things. It’s a playground but also an alphabet; it’s public furniture but it can talk.”
