Clément Le Tulle-Neyret designs printed objects in general and books in particular. Viewing editorial objects through the prism of the ‘secondary text’,¹ understood as the formatting of the ‘primary text’, he considers them to be an extension of their own content and a total sensory experience. His attention is particularly focused on typography, both for its ordinary nature and for the multiple layers of meaning it conceals, which sometimes border on black art.²
In 2018, he received research support from the Centre national des arts plastiques to continue and finalise the work he began in 2016 at the Atelier national de recherche typographique on the Immortel typeface, published in 2021 by the 205TF foundry.
The same year, he co-founded Électro-bibliothèque with Thomas Leblond, a platform for the distribution of typefaces and editorial objects.
