Made in Germany, Referenz Grotesk is a typeface filled with references referring to the type style history of Stuttgart State Academy of Art and Design. Its typographic history holds a broad spectrum of shapes and characters, consisting of F.H. Ernst Schneidler (1882-- 1956), Imre Reiner (1900-- 1987), Walter Brudi (1907-- 1987), Kurt Weidemann (1922-- 2011) and Frank Heine (1964-- 2003).

During extensive research study stages for Referenz Grotesk included collection and analysis. This caused more research study in the Academy's collection and archive where the bulk of Weidemann's estate is housed beside works of other designers and professors like F.H. Ernst Schneidler and Walter Brudi. Another place of research was the typesetting workshop where Schneidler had formerly taught and worked. Some of his freshly cast fonts were checked and used there for the very first time and are still kept in numerous of the type cases. Relating to the more recent history, for instance about the Emigre designer Frank Heine, former associates and teachers have been consulted.

These studies resulted in the brand-new font style Referenz Grotesk that consists of traces of Kurt Weidemann's Business in addition to calligraphic tips that connect to Schneidler's Stuttgarter Schule (Stuttgart School) where writing played an important function during the type finding procedure. For the regular text typefaces these features are incorporated in a subtle manner whereas numerous alternative glyphs pick up more expressive forms.

The last sans serif type family has a clarity and modern straightness that ends up being more particular in its heavier weights. In addition more than 60 alternative glyphs per weight permit private combinations that can be customized specifically for each application and context. They open up a broad range of visual expressions, from subtle to playful and eccentric characteristics.

Referenz Grotesk is available in six weights: Light, Regular, Medium, Bold, Additional Strong and Black, plus italics. In addition, the family consists of several OpenType functions such as Stylistic Sets, Tabular Figures and Case Delicate forms. Variable variation of the font style is included when you license the complete pack.
