My friend Nathalie Dumont’s boyfriend Martin found this curious type called Tschichold, obviously designed by Tschichold. To my surprise, it is a humanist sanserif, rather contradictory to his irreverence towards humanist sans in his The new typography. Myfonts.com says: “Jan Tschichold has been very influenced by Gill Sans (1928) for this humanistic sans serif drawn in 1933/36 for Uhertype.” Well, that’s pretty obvious. It is in fact extremely close to Gill Sans – too close. Martin says it was inspired by Paul Renner’s work too. I really can’t understand why he likes it so much... oh well.
