MERGING

Parts

I developed this font for an assignment where we had to create an identity for multiple records and a poster. This identity was meant for the label Deutsche Grammaphon. I interpreted that label in the sense of the old versus the new, classic versus modern. What I did with that interpretation is that I made a mixture between the classic Bembo and the Modernistic Helvetica. At first I just sliced through the middle and pasted the two sides together. This resulted in the 5050 style. But I needed a more refined style so I started to polish the letters and make every transition smooth. I ended up with Merging Parts. The subtle transitions and changes in the letters are it's strength..
