Über die Familie


This font takes its name and the overall shape from modern bentwood furniture, namely Scandinavian designs since the 1940s. The curved corners of the letterforms are practically hyperbolic, to convey the tension and strength of the bent plywood. These curves are meant to appear more dynamic than circular or elliptical segments of traditional sans serif fonts. The letterforms are simplified, without extra corners, stems, connections or hooks, yet remain legible at any size. Now at version 2, Bentwood contains Central/Eastern European, Baltic and Turkish character sets and more ligatures with Open Type functionality. Some minor corrections were made to letter shapes and positions, as well as to kerning and spacing.

Über Paragraph

Paragraph is the foundry of Jan Schmoeger, who was fascinated by letterforms and type since his childhood (a school work experience in metal hand-typesetting probably the cause), and since 2008 concentrated mainly on typeface design. Rather than reviving or modifying existing types, he developed new typefaces from original geometries experimentally, combining deliberate design with accidental aesthetics.
