ABOUT







Christian Goetz

Swiss artist Christian Goetz designed the labyrinthine typeface Linotype Minos in 1997. He named it after King Minos of Crete (in the Bronze Age). Typical of scripts of that era were the ornamental borders around the characters, found in the palaces of Knossos, Phaistos and Mallia.
