An ever-growing collection of Soviet-era and antique printed ephemera: books, magazines, stamps, plastic bags and more.
The article profiles Estonian type design studio Tüpokompanii, led by Aimur Takk and Andree Paat, whose work embraces imperfection and vernacular influences. Drawing from Soviet-era printed materials and analogue processes, the duo create experimental typefaces like Juunior that challenge polished digital norms. Their practice blends historical research, physical experimentation, and a playful approach to typographic form.

The project balances expressive deconstruction with cohesive design elements to reflect Siuru’s evolving nature.
