Constantin Pfeiffer
Researcher and designer at the University of Applied Sciences in Darmstadt, Germany. Co-designer with Jerome Knebusch (Frankfurt am Main) of If (2017-2020). They write about If: Based on Futura Fett, released by the Bauer Foundry in Frankfurt in 1928, the type was pushed to extreme blackness without loosing its historical reference nor becoming a caricature. Decisions Paul Renner took to achieve maximum boldness like opening the counters of some letters were taken even further. The typeface, designed by Constantin Pfeiffer & Jérôme Knebush, was initially created during a workshop at the Gutenberg Museum Mainz on the occasion of the "Futura. Die Schrift" exhibition in 2017. |
