Schriftwechsel T., 2025 edition
Website detail rendered in Aleksa
“Schriftwechsel T.” is a special feature offered on the website of Forum Typografie. Every year, the German typography organization presents a new set of typefaces. These typefaces can be selected from a dedicated menu. The selection is then applied to the entire website.
This typographic theme switcher allows type designers to showcase their work. At the same time, the visitors – mostly designers and typographers – can discover, observe and compare typefaces. The type designers introduce themselves on dedicated pages, providing background information on the process and images of specimens and in-use examples.
For this year, Forum Typografie invited Martin Tiefenthaler of typographische gesellschaft austria to curate a set of fonts. Martin focused on recent releases by designers with a connection to Austria. His selection comprises Bajazzo and Bajazzo Rounded by Lisa Schultz, Margit by Miriam Surányi, and Nikolai by Franziska Weitgruber.
A fifth, permanent option is Aleksa. The typeface by AlfaBravo has been in use since 2022. It was licensed in order to directly support Ukrainian type designers.
The profiles of typefaces featured in previous editions of Schriftwechsel T. can be explored in the archives.
