SVA.edu 4.0
EST. 2019

SVA.edu is set in Ringside, Sentinel and Obsidian, which are all typefaces drawn by Hoefler&Co. It was designed in New York City by SVA’s in-house design studio, the Visual Arts Press (VAP).


Since its relaunch, SVA.edu has received two Webby Awards (2021, 2023); The Webbys, presented by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences, celebrate “the best of the Internet.”
