Atlas Grotesk in use: Switch ’24

A typeface rethinking the aesthetics of Dutch modernism for Australian libraries

2 September 2025

Switch is an annual conference for employees of New South Wales Public Libraries. Each year, the event is held in a different city and employs a different brand identity. Atlas Grotesk by Commercial Type is used in the project’s typography, with an apostrophe in the event’s logo borrowed by designer Harley Johnston from the Söhne typeface by Klim Type Foundry.

Atlas Grotesk was commissioned by Munich Re, one of the world’s largest reinsurance companies. The typeface deliberately neglects the latest trends in corporate typography, instead opting for the clear and optimistic visual language of Dutch Modernism. The Atlas Collection also includes a monospaced sans serif named Typewriter.
