I have this idea to make this an inline style, but I think that's easier said than done. #Lettering #Blackletter #Type #Affinity #Vector

Manchmal muss es einfach klassisches Blackletter in tiefstem Schwarz sein. Keine Ablenkung, nur reine Form und Kontrast.
Gibt es hier noch andere Typo-Nerds, die die Frakturschrift so feiern wie ich?

Detail from a ceiling at Tortworth Court hotel near Dursely (the place, not Harry Potter character). I think this is Blackletter. What does is say?

I like the saucy, #tattoo #blackletter styling of these logos of “the Gardenista” on a van in #ColeValley #SanFrancisco.

🎸🤘 Hexcess began as a sketch for a sci-fi heavy metal band logo. It’s an experiment using hexagons and the novel forms built from them to construct a high-contrast, condensed blackletter on a grid. In the grand tradition of heavy metal logos, readability wasn’t a high priority but fun certainly was. Use it for posters, album covers, book titles, zines, and legal fine print. 🥴

James Todd’s “Elfreth” typeface is the best blackletter of the last half century.

I love fringe industrial areas, especially boat yards and docks.
You come across small business gems, like this in Sausalito.

Has an hexagon-based isometric blackletter already happened?
