ABOUT

Petra Rueth

Petra Rueth is a graphic and type designer who is studying at HGB Leipzig under Fred Smeijers in 2018. More specifically, she researches the relationship between the Fraktur, Kanzlei, and Kurrent scripts. At ATypI 2018 in Antwerp, Petra Rueth introduced the work of C.G. Roßberg in 1793: In the late 18th century, C.G. Roßberg, a German clerk, worked on a stunning project: he envisioned a system of scripts which would harmonize together. Following the Renaissance approach, where science and art were intermingled, his aim was to encapsulate the beauty of letters in a mathematical system.
