Type historian and copywriter. Sometimes a designer, too. I live in Wuppertal and work in the book studies program down in Mainz. www.typeoff.de
This book is out now! Over 196-pages, it dives into the technological differences between the systems of movable type pioneered in East Asia and Western Europe. It is probably the most challenging thing I have designed so far but if it sells well, I might get to do it all over again in English 😉

A few years ago, the Deutsches Technikmuseum uncovered surviving records from H. Berthold AG’s type-cutting department. Thanks to funding from digiS, files 70 years old or more were digitized.
