Inspired by a set of symbols devised by artist and designer Wolfgang Schmidt in the 1970s and named Lebenszeichen (“signs of life”). The typeface was started for a reader accompanying an exhibition that evolved from Maxim Weirich’s diploma project in 2019, with glyphs based on the same grid as used by Schmidt for his Lebenszeichen. The retail release comes in Regular and Extended styles. Working title was G2 Lebenszeichen.
