ABOUT







Hendrik Weber

Graduate of HGB Leipzig who designs commercial typefaces published by Our Type. Designer of the Lirico family at OurType in 2008. This family is slightly organic and is characterized by triangular serifs. Lirico won an award at TDC2 2009.

Still at Ourtype, Hendrik Weber created Edward (2008): Edward is named in honour of Edward Johnston, calligrapher, teacher, and author of Writing & Illuminating, & Lettering (1906). [...] The inspiration behind Edward will be immediately recognizable: the 'blockletter' Johnston designed for the London Underground in 1916, for use in their signs and posters.

His thesis Kursiv has been published by Niggli Verlag in 2010.
