Calligraphy has long been neglected by many professional typographers, but the Type Directors Show suggests that “Lettering” is an important discipline in the field of typography in the United States. The number of fonts inspired by handwriting is growing along with the interest in calligraphy. Linotype presents here a look into the world of calligraphy, written by the internationally known expert, Gottfried Pott.

The French designer Thierry Pulfoulhoux (born 1961) created the font ITC Korigan™ in 1997. ITC Korigan is uncial typeface which he wanted to offer as an alternative to Victor Hammer's American Unicial™, which remains for him "the uncial character of reference." The roundness of an uncial gives it the look of pearls on a string, as Hammer said, and ITC Korigan is true to its heritage in this respect. Despite the roundness, however, the forms remain familiar and legible to the modern eye.
German designer Gudrun Zapf von Hesse created the following fonts:
Alcuin® (1991), Ariadne® (1954), Carmina® (1986), Christiana® (1991), Colombine® (1991), Diotima® (1952), Diotima® Classic (2008), Nofret® (1984) Shakespeare™ (1968), Smaragd™ (1953).
Please take a look at the personal designer portrait of Gudrun Zapf von Hesse.
The phenomenon of the art of lettering has been with us since the very beginning of writing. This surely comes from the desire to express the content of the text in a very specific way. Each era has had its own forms of artistic expression, and so it is with lettering. The art of lettering is the art of “subtle” notes, as in chamber music, for example, where the fine, in-between notes also become audible or visible. Emanating from England prior to and at the beginning of the 20th [...]
Diseñador de fuentes: Gottfried Pott, 1995
Arioso™ de Gottfried Pott surge a partir de una forma antigua de Old Face, desarrollada durante los siglos XIV y XV en Italia. El estilo combinaba las letras mayúsculas romanas con las minúsculas carolingias. Esta combinación reúne en la misma familia básica a muchos otros tipos de letra Chancery cursivos, como ITC Zapf Chancery® de Hermann Zapf. Los trazos de bolígrafo que forman las letras de Arioso siguen siendo visibles en el [...]
