Two days, one stage, and a room full of people willing to listen. Fifteen years after its first edition, beyond tellerrand once again transformed Düsseldorf’s Capitol Theater into something that felt less like a conference and more like a temporary creative ecosystem: open, restless, and deeply human. What began in 2010 without a clear roadmap has quietly grown into one...
Reiner Neue is a contemporary type system informed by the work of Hungarian-born modernist Imre Reiner. Rather than reconstructing historical models, the project translates Reiner’s ideas on rhythm, proportion, and typographic structure into a framework designed for present-day use. The family takes Meridian (1930) as a conceptual point of departure while incorporating selected ornamental references from Reiner’s Primula ornament series,...
KTF Prima began over a decade ago during Yevgeniy Anfalov’s studies at ECAL, sparked by an interest in Forma, a modernist sans serif often perceived as warmer than its contemporaries due to its proportions and restrained contrast.
