Font Designer: Guido Bittner, 2003

A winner font of Linotype´s International Type Design Contest 2003 (honorable mention category display) and part of the new ITDC 2003 Winners CD.

Making a Christmas card takes a lot of work! Finding the right typeface can be tough, too. Have you ever spent hours searching for the right one? Well, in 2003, instead of spending hours searching, German designer Guido Bittner, made his own. Expectation™ was first used on the Christmas card for Bittner’s Wiesbaden design studio, like VorSicht.
This delicate series of letters maintains a handwritten feel, in part because it began as a digitalization of Bittner’s own handwriting. Expectation Swash includes additional swash letters, which can be paired with regular version of Expectation to create superior effects. Perhaps it is already time for you to begin working on next year’s holiday cards. Let these fonts be the starting port for your inspiration!
