The German edition of _TYPE. Buchdruck in Europa and Asien_ is out now! Available through the Gutenberg Museum Shop and Harrossowitz Verlag, this 196-page book dives into the technological differences between the systems of movable type pioneered in East Asia and Western Europe, and how the Gutenberg Museum in Mainz has presented these to viewers in the past. It was probably the most challenging thing that I have designed so far but it was also an excellent opportunity to try out the Martina Plantijn and Söhne typefaces from Klim Type Foundry. Buy it now for €38 + shipping and maybe I’ll be able to do it all over again in English!

Every collection has to start somewhere, I guess!

Akzidenz-Grotesk is one of the most popular typefaces of the last 100 years. It was the cornerstone of the Swiss International Style, and for decades, was the heart of the New York City Subway’s visual identity.

In the 1920s, a custom variant of Akzidenz-Grotesk was created for Germany’s emerging system of industrial standards. It was never mass produced, and few people have ever seen it.

Now on Peacham, design historian Dan Reynolds takes us deep into the Berthold type-cutting archives, unearthing the backstory behind this little-known version of an otherwise ubiquitous typeface.

My copy of _Lettering: The Handbook for Lettering by Walter Käch_ arrived today and I ❤️ it! Head over to Dinamo’s website, or the Museum for Gestaltung Zürich’s webpage now to get your own copy. It is so much cheaper and faster to get than an original copy of _Schriften Lettering Écritures_ from 1949 📖
The original doesn’t have my introduction in it, either.

The discoverer of the Neanderthals. Laurentiusstraße.

Obligatory photo with the statue now that I’ve started working at the Johannes Gutenberg University at Mainz!

Two fantastic students brought self-baked muffins into the @hsnr_druckwerkstatt today, because this is my last workday in Krefeld. The muffins were so delicious but the gesture was even nicer 😢
