ABOUT







Ludwig von Hohlwein

Designer (b. 1874, Wiesbaden, d. 1949, Berchtesgaden) at the Benjamin Krebs foundry who made Hohlweinschrift (1907). He worked mostly in München. Hohlwein was a poster artist ("Plakatmeister"). His posters inspired Nick Curtis to create several digital fonts. Alles trinkt Teutonenbrau (a beer poster from 1926) led to WurstwagenNF. Engelhorns Romanbibliothek (ca. 1912) yielded Chalk and Cheese NF (2004). Riquet Pralinen (1920) was used to develop Picayune Intelligence BT Roman. Richard Lipton created Bremen Black (1992, Font Bureau) after the lettering on a 1922 poster by von Hohlwein.

Arnie Presiado (Inkfonts) designed Bierstedt (2017) and Porterhouse (2017) based ion Hohlwein's lettering. FontShop link.
