25 years 100 percent
anniversary symposion of the typographic society austria

thursday, august 28 to sunday, august 31 2025
raabs an der thaya castle

the symposion

international and local speakers will talk about type and type development and technical, design, and socio-political aspects. the ›symposion‹ has always been a hedonistic meeting and an international exchange platform removed from business and wage labour.

we dedicate four days to lectures, discussions, talks, and workshops. the location, its seclusion, and its limited infrastructure have proven to be a blessing that enables us to focus on content.

the tga aspires to represent the interests of designers who value typography and recognize its potency. we offer a forum for typographic excellence and expertise in austria.

for 25 years we have given it our 100 percent, and more this we have inscribed into the 2025 symposion colours: a strong pink made of 100% magenta and 25% yellow and a deep black made of 25% cyan and 100% black.

we are looking forward to intensive days with our members and guests, with lectures, workshops, exhibitions. and of course we are looking forward to raabs castle and its regents, ›lady‹ Helga and ›sir‹ Richard Pils.
