“Protokoll draws its inspiration from a couple of sturdy and technical typefaces such as Folio, Permanent and Record. Its design is based on a grid in order to preserve the mechanical spirit. The starting point was a comparison of metal type in Karl Gerstner’s book “Designing Programs”. It illustrates different sizes of a typeface called Berthold [i.e. Akzidenz-Grotesk] and how the design changes according to size.” — Out Of The Dark
