Hello!
This is my first Typeface, called Werk Grotesk.
My Approach is to create a sans serif inspired by the traditions of swiss typography, but with a more playful twist and full of character.
The subtle quirks and the tall x-Height make the typeface especially suitable for big applications like posters or titles.
Nevertheless the typeface should be legible and usable for body text aswell.
I started out with the regular-cut. The light, medium and bold cut are all drawn from scratch, without interpolation, because i wanted to understand how different weights work. I'm planning to draw italics aswell, but i have to read some more theory before.
Now i would love to get some feedback from more experienced Type-Designer!
Every feedback, tip or critique is highly appreciated!![]( "Image: https://us.v-cdn.net/5019405/uploads/editor/4b/9jo4clbte7ih.jpg")
