Berlin Typography

Very strong want for Berlin Typography by Jesse Simon, found via an excellent Tribune article on the meaning of city signage by Owen Hatherley. Berlin’s typography is a riot (like most metropolises, I’d imagine) but, to these British eyes, especially exotic, with its umlauts and eszetts, blackletters and geometric and humanist sans.
