The Designer
After completing an apprenticeship as an engraver, Daniel Lanz – who was born in 1958 in Schaffhausen (Switzerland) – spent 20 years carving letterforms and contours into metal. A second apprenticeship in typographic design – with intensive study of works by Gill, Meier, and Frutiger – considerably depend his interest in the forms and effects of typography.
Digitizing hand-drawn sketches into the skeletal forms of the alphabet, Lanz began developing various ideas for broader [...]
Diverda is a geometric type family that is free of ornamentation. The x-heights are low, and the differences between curved, square, and triangular elements is very clear. Like the more calligraphic typefaces of the past, Diverda´s strokes exhibit contrast that is inspired by movements of the pen on paper; down strokes are heavier than up strokes. The family contains both slab serif and sans serif styles; the sans serifs form the basis of the whole design.

About Diverda™ Serif Light ...
Designer: Daniel Lanz, 2004
Diverda™ Serif Light belongs to the Diverda™ Serif Font Family which is part of the Linotype Originals.
Diverda Serif is a contemporary typeface that is free from ornament. Created by Swiss designer Daniel Lanz, Diverda Serif is optimized for maximum legibility. In contrast to many other modern typefaces, which try to squeeze the traditional rounder forms of the alphabet into square designs, and which often attempt to equalize the widths of the capital letters, Diverda Serif remains true to the proper proportions of the Roman alphabet. The x-heights of Diverda Serif's characters are low, and the differences between curved, square, and triangular elements are very clear. Like the more calligraphic typefaces of the past, Diverda Serif's strokes exhibit contrast that is inspired by movements of the pen on paper; down strokes are heavier than up strokes. Possible applications for the Diverda Serif include magazine design, as well as advertising for fashion, design, or architectural products. Diverda Serif is also a good fit for Corporate Identity solutions.Diverda Serif has a matching sans serif companion family, Diverda Sans.
The ten fonts in the Diverda Serif family are all Linotype "Com" OpenType fonts; their character set includes glyphs necessary for the setting of 48 Latin-based languages. These include all of the languages in Western, Central, and Eastern Europe that use the Roman alphabet (including the Baltics and Turkey). Also, the upright fonts in the Diverda Serif family include extra ligatures, small caps, small cap figures, and oldstyle figures. The Italic fonts include extra ligatures and oldstyle figures.
