ABOUT

Josh Krämer

German typophile based in Heidelberg. Board member of Bund für die deutsche Sprache. His typefaces include:

• Donnersberg (2013). Donnersberg is a gothic block-letter typeface designed for easy handwriting. It is based on forms of the gothic cursive and of other blackletter styles. Its simple letter forms are suitable for both broad-nib and pointed-nib writing. Started in 2008, it was finished in 2013.
• Gorton. Josh writes: Gorton is a revival of the default typeface for the Gorton engraving machines. That typeface and typefaces derived from it have been used for a wide range of products, from aircraft instruments to computer keyboards. URW offers a digital font named Gordon that seems to be based on the Gorton typeface but it is quite different, has no lowercase letters and its quality is poor.
• Grid15 (2015). A programming font.
• Lenzing (2015). A Fraktur and a gothic cursive, created in cooperation with Peter Gericke.
• Britannica (2018).
