This is probably the first use of NN Arosa after its release at the Swiss foundry Nouvelle Noire. The constructed shapes of Arosa perfectly match the custom designed Dendemann logo that I created in 2015. The German rapper asked for a more robust and mainstream logo that could compete with other festival headliners. Before that, we used ever switching logos inspired by hip-hop culture and metal. Some of them can still be seen here on my website.

The photograph is taken in Berlin with the Siegessäule in the background, by Nils Müller, a former graffiti artist from Hamburg who taught himself photography so that he could immortalize his own work. Therefore, it is nice to see these posters, back in Hamburg-St. Pauli, on tagged and spray-painted walls.
