ABOUT

Lina Kahal

During her studies at Haute Ecole des Arts du Rhin in Mulhouse, France, 2014, Lina Kahal designed the playful geometric typeface family Territoire (2014), the monoline sans typeface Lina Rounded (2014), and the revival typeface Ptolemy (2015). Ptolemy revives Ptolemy, designed iun 1927 by Hornby, Walker and Cockerel for the Ashendene Press edition of Don Quichote de la Mancha (Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, 1547-1616). This typeface in turn is based on the type created in 1482 by Lienhart Holle in Ulm for Cosmographia, a cartographic classic by Claudius Ptolemaeus. Ptolemy was developed during a workshop led by Jerome Knebusch. Behance link.
