Information

Description

Waldenburg is a highly sophisticated, carefully drawn sans serif typeface that was specifically designed to be adaptable for all analogue and digital uses w hile still remaining a warm and print-like character. It is a hybrid in many ways: Though it has a strong humanist and organic feel due to the strong vertical contrast and subtle squarishness its shapes still derive from a geometrical and mathematically precise construction. Waldenburg’s super high x-height, which is consitent throughout the family, gives it maximum compatibility between all cuts, high legibility and the possibility to set it in a very tight line spacing. This typeface perfectly blends a distinctive character with formal neutrality.

Background

Waldenburg lends his name from a small hilltop town in Southern Germany, where designer Michael Clasen grew up. Inspired by the region's hybridization of rural landscapes and strong technological innovation driven economy, its first sketches began in late 2019. Since then a whole superfamily consisting of 24 cuts, varying in weight and width, emerged. The corresponding Kursiv (Italic) cuts were designed by graphic and type designer Marcel Saidov and arrived in early 2022.
