ABOUT







Kai Büschl

Born in 1971, Kai Büschl studied graphic design at the University of Applied Science Augsburg, Germany from 1993-1998. One of the three cofounders of Lazydogs Type foundry in Augsburg, Germany. In 2005 Kai was appointed visiting professor at the HBK Saar (University of Fine Arts Saarbrwücken).

In 2017, he developed the didone typeface family LD Moderne Antiqua (and LD Moderne Antiqua fat) with three optical sizes for each style. LD Moderne Antiqua Fat finds its model in fat modern style typefaces of the seventies. In 2018, it was followed by the Clarendon style LD Moderne Slab. Proof & Co write: LD Moderne Slab is a tidy and classic take on the Clarendon style, with its more square proportions, Its proud and definitive features, and its well heeled serifs. It's clean, it's neat, it's rather nicely put together---in other words, it's a serious study in subtlety. If you set a line of it in open white space, stand back and let the letters breathe, it suddenly takes on a prestigious and stately vibe, and that's a result of the million tiny little things going on in its design that you wouldn't otherwise note but are working hard to express a modern refinement. I like LD Moderne Slab because its an unexpectedly elevated and quiet offering in a field of louder personalities.
