Ludwig Goller was a German engineer who worked at Siemens in Berlin. Next to being the head of the central standard office at Siemens, he chaired the DIN Committee on Type. This commitee developed and established DIN 1451 which provides standard typefaces fo public signage. Released as a norm in 1936, DIN 1451 includes DIN Engschrift and DIN Mittelschrift until today; It’s used for german road wayfinding. 15

The DIN 1451 typeface family includes both a medium and a condensed version; an older extended version is no longer used since the early 1980s, but may still be encountered on older road signs in Germany. DIN 1451 is the typeface used on road signage in Germany and a number of other countries. It was also used on German car number plates as from 1956, until replaced there in November 2000 by FESchrift, a typeface especially designed to make the plates more tamper-proof and to optimize automatic character recognition. The typeface has gained popularity due to its wide exposure through its release as a PostScript typeface in 1990. Since then it is also used by non-

The DIN typeface originated in the German railway system, and is therefore most associated with public transportation signage. After the unification of the German states in 1915, Prussian-Hessian Railways decided that all lettering on railway platforms and stations must also be executed according to the 1905 master drawing. The Weimar Republic and the unification of the German states lead to the merging of all state railways by Deutsche Reichsbahn in 1920, causing the Prussian railway typeface to spread across Germany. From 1920 to 1945, engineer Ludwig Goller of the DIN Committee lead the central standardization process of the typeface at Siemens & Halske in Berlin. The name DIN 1451 is an acronym for “Deutsches Institut fur Normung�. D. Stempel AG was the first type foundry that produced printing types according to DIN Standard, and released versions of DIN to be used outside of the German railway system. By 1936, DIN became a country-wide standard and was officially adopted by Germany. The typeface was first used as a standard for traffic signs, street signs, building signs, airplanes, machinery, and house numbers.

82


DIN 1451 has a corporate, clean, and functional design. It is rid of any social and cultural references. The DIN letter-forms were not derived from human hand strokes, but rather were based on a grid. The geometric aesthetic agreed with the Modernist, Constructivist, and Bauhaus designers. There are two categories within DIN 1451: Mittelschrift (medium, the main typeface) and Engschrift (condensed), that is only really used when there is not enough space to use Mittelschrift. Within each style of DIN 1451, there are no variations in stroke widths, or any fancy ornaments. Its direct nature allowed it to be legible by all, embodying a democratic and global perspective. DIN 1451 continued to be present in street life throughout the second half of the 20th century via German car number plates from 1956 to 2000. Overtime the typeface was revisited by graphic designers and adapted to digital formats, like Albert-Jan Pool a type designer who has redesigned DIN 1451 to FF DIN in 1995, transforming the typeface to be applicable to graphic design and publishing in mags, advertisements, web, and corporate logos.
