Designer Veronika Grüger (born 1972) created the font Veronika™ in 2004. This series of text faces have near-uniform stroke widths, but still maintain some calligraphic aspects in their forms, which add dynamic and movement-like qualities to text. Veronika’s proportions allow it to function very well in long amounts of copy set in small sizes. However, only when you design larger headlines, logos, or other elements with Veronika, will you notice all of the type’s special qualities, such as its [...]

About Veronika™ Font Family ...
Designer: Veronika Grüger, 2004
The Veronika™ Font Family is part of the Linotype Originals.
Veronika Grüger designed the Veronika type family in 2004. Veronika is a semi-serif text face, available in three styles: Regular, Italic, and Bold. All three faces are available in OpenType format, with both lining and old-style figures. Grüger, a German artist and designer, first began the design of her typeface by writing out its letterforms with a wooden stylus. She wanted to create a new semi serif face that had uniform stroke widths, but still maintained some aspects of calligraphy. Veronika achieves this; the terminals that begin the first strokes of most letters are round and bulbous, as if the writing instrument added extra emphasis on that spot. This adds a dynamic, movement-like quality to texts designed with Veronika. Aside from some sans serif-ness, Veronika appears similar to old style typefaces from the renaissance: classical inscriptions inspired the proportions of the capital letters, and the lower case letters stem from Carolinian minuscule. These proportions allow Veronika to function very well in text and at small sizes. However, only when you design larger headlines, logos, or other elements with Veronika, will you notice all of its special qualities, like its weight distribution and stroke characteristics.
