Designer Donald DBXL Beekman daily crosses the Berlage bridge spanning the Amstel river in Amsterdam. The Berlagebrug was constructed as part of the city planning task 'Strategy Zuid' by H.P.Berlage and opened in Might 1932. Its name, carved out of two granite headstones, stimulated the design of this typeface family. The initial lettering is associated to Anton Kurvers in the early 19th century, and can be seen on many Amsterdam buildings and bridges. It's normal lettering of the Amsterdamse School, the Dutch equivalent of the expressionist art deco architectural design, and mostly understood for its elegant brick work.

VLNL Berlagebrug is a rounded display screen font style that can be found in three summary designs matching the building products used in the bridge. Gietijzer (cast iron) is smooth, Zandsteen (sandstone) has a gently distressed overview, and Graniet (granite) is outspoken rough and collapsed. The uppercase in VLNL Berlagebrug remain in the Amsterdamse school style, the lowercases are more straight alternate capitals, providing you more style choices.
