Type Gallery – Linotype Auferstehung

Font Designer: Johannes Plass, 1997

Linotype Auferstehung™ is part of the Take Type Library, selected from contestants of Linotype’s International Digital Type Design Contest of 1994 and 1997. German designer Johannes Plass was influenced by historic broken letter faces, particularly Caslon Gotisch, although the rounded corners give the font a handwritten look. Linotype Auferstehung is particularly good for headlines in larger point sizes.
