The bold unruly script letters above the door to Wilhelm Rixen Maschinenbau look very much like an ad hoc creation, i.e. not typographic — and indeed they are custom-made. Still this is a case for Fonts In Use: The letterforms are unmistakably modeled after a typeface. In this case it is Slogan, see the comparison below. Its shapes were translated quite amateurishly (also note the off-center position of the sign), but all the distinctive features are preserved.

According to Inside Ottensen, the building has been demolished in the meantime, to make space for luxury lofts.
