Typography Tuesday

This week we present all twelve plates in the undated calligraphic alphabet portfolio Alphabete by the German calligrapher and type designer Hans Kühne (1910-1961).The translation of the full title reads Alphabets for Writers, Printers, Painters, Draftsmen, Artisans and Those Who Enjoy Beautiful Writing. Kühne was a student of the great German calligrapher and type designer Rudolf Koch (1876-1934). This portfolio was published in Hamburg by the “Rudolf Koch Circle” in association with Bärenreiter-Verlag in Kassel and Basel, and displays a distinct relationship to Koch’s approach to design.

View examples of work by Rudolf Koch.
