For the Viabella design, Karl-Heinz Lange drew the standard letterforms of the Black and Routine cuts with a brush. He then re-worked the illustrations and transferred them on to tracing paper. The style studio Elsner+ Flake in Hamburg cut these typeface extensions and later digitized them by hand with the aid of the IKARUS Sustem. With the Regular cut as a basis, Elsner+ Flake extended the family with the Light version and interpolated and re-worked the Medium weight. The conclusion of the family was taken control of by the type designer Björn Gogalla who had actually done the very same sort of work on Rotola, a design which Karl-Heinz Lange had likewise created for Elsner+ Flake.
While Viabella was originally developed as a headline typeface, its lighter weights can definitely be used for much shorter text applications. The Black variation creates powerful headlines with extremely reliable accents. With the aid of swashes, which are offered for all weights, the user can brighten up longer texts and add unique character to titles.
In contrast to pure heading typefaces, Viabella has been improved by a substantial enhance of special characters. In addition to the Europa-Plus character set which enables setting type in over 70 latin-based languages, the user will find several versions of characters in addition to oldstyle figures, tabular and proportional lining figures, diagonal fractions, and a total set of superior and inferior figures and fractions (60%).
With such an abundant character set, Viabella is not just perfect for several usages in the locations of newspaper, magazine and marketing however it will surely be selected for the design of welcoming cards, invites and other style jobs within the privat sphere.
