Font Designer: Alex Rütten, 2008
It isn’t often that Linotype releases a new serif typeface family intended for setting long passages of text. Many designers enjoy making more display-oriented typefaces. Others prefer the clean, optimistic modernism of sans serifs. When we produce a new serif family, it is a reason to celebrate! Let's open a bottle of champagne for Alex Rütten’s Ginkgo™. Don’t mix this typeface up with the older display font name Ginko, though! [...]
Designed by Alex Rütten, Ginkgo™ is a stylish text typeface. It works well for setting extended passages of text at small sizes thanks to its open counters, generous character widths, and clear and unique letterforms. On top of that, the handling of details such as in the serifs, cross bars, and terminals are wonderful to appreciate when used at large point sizes as well.
