Alberto Malossi
Alberto Malossi (b. 1991) studied graphic design at ISIA Urbino from 2015 to 2019. While completing his BA thesis project on Italian type design in the 1990s, he interned at the graphic design studio Julia in Rome, creating a family of typefaces for the Italian Pavilion at the 58th Venice Biennale. He then attended the MA program in Type Design at École cantonale d’art de Lausanne (ECAL, 2019–2021), where he initiated the drawing of LL Schema, his personal take on Karlgeorg Hoefer’s Permanent. His MA thesis “Extraordinary Gentleman” explored the oeuvre of printer, scholar and type designer Giovanni Mardersteig (1892–1977) and the relevance of his methodology in contemporary type design.
After graduation, Malossi started working as a graphic designer in the fashion industry in Milan. Since 2022, he has been a regular collaborator of Studio Marie Lusa, designing books for institutions such as Kunsthaus Zürich, Belvedere 21, and Kunsthaus Bregenz. He also continued pursuing his own design and art direction projects, mainly in the cultural sector, and continued to develop his skills as an independent type designer, before joining Lineto in the spring of 2026.
