Jeder sieht, was du scheinst. Nur wenige fühlen wie du bist. GT Haptik is a grotesque typeface with a very special characteristic: Its uppercase letters and numbers are optimized to be read blindfolded and by touching them. Therefor these glyphs are monoline and geometrical. Optical criteria become secondary. This gives the typeface a weird but also very charmful touch that plays well not only in display sizes, but also for text use.

The Tactile Poster —Close your eyes — Try to palpate the text on the poster

Following the starting idea of giving the graphic designer the role of a contributor and not just a user of fonts, Daniel Bär developed the descendant of GT Skeletor (2009, Grilli Type). Rohbau lost the mechanical character of its monospace ancestor. The now humane letter structure of the matrix counteracts the mathematical logic of the generated fonts which results in surprising, unexpected forms and characters.

* free cuts from the growing GT Rohbau online library

Rohbau will never be finished. It represents a font-model based on digital manipulation. The façades of the skeleton are generated following mathematic structures, and not the flowing movement of a designers hand. The result is a large family with a big amount of uncommon designs ranging from well-behaving text fonts unto disfigured and unreadable display-bastards. The richness of the Rohbau system is depending on the will of the contributors to participate in the developpement by sharing their creations online.

Everything depends on how we use a material, not on the material itself.

1 of 5 lena specimen posters

Bazaar Magazine, 1965. is she lena?

Lena is a Sans-serif typeface featuring additional letterforms for some of the letters which allows you to play with the font in order to create striking titles. Inspired by late 80', early 90' wild graphics, Gt Lena is a cover girl. She's sexy, lunatic and elegant.

So when he started designing the typeface, he took the Walsheim poster as his main reference and tried to collect the missing uppercase letters plus the numerals from other Baumberger posters. Lowercase characters were added too, trying to incorporate the spirit of the period. Walsheim has proper spacing and kerning and an expanded glyphset containing 209 characters plus one alternate udersesis characterset. In its heart it is a geometric sans serif but it has a certain roughness in its design. The caps make it a great headline font and in combination with the lowercase Walsheim is also usuable in text size.

GT Walsheim specimen poster by Noël Leu ( lithography, 2 fulltone colors.)

At first Noël Leu, the designer, was impressed by the visual qualities of the poster ”WALSHEIM NEGER” and how well the type works with the illustration. Especially the peculiar uppercase G with its very unique design interested him and soon he realized that there are other posters which type shows exactly the same G and very similar overall characteristics.

Otto Baumberger was one of the great early Swiss poster designers. Quoted above, Baumberger stated that he never really had an education in typography. He invented his own typefaces as he needed them while designing his posters. At first his typefaces seem to be random experiments but once you take a closer look you realize that they have certain design aspects which occur troughout most of his work.
