Typography is how a brand sounds.
Before you read a single word, type already speaks.

For over 18 years, we’ve worked with adidas on some of its most demanding typography projects — from the adidas history book and the development of adiHaus2015 with type designer to campaign lettering for the 2022 World Cup and a complete type system for adidas retail in 2024.
Every detail matters.

Every letter. Every weight. Every spacing.
Because great typography doesn’t just support a brand identity. It becomes part of how the brand is heard, seen and remembered.

Julius and Albertus — You can't design a love brand.
And how Julius Brantner Brothandwerk became one anyway.

When we first met Julius, he had just started looking for a bakery in Munich. He brought one thing to the meeting: a loaf of his bread.
Organic ingredients. Suppliers he knew by name. Big windows. Open until the last loaf was gone. We didn't need a brief. We had heard it — and tasted it.

For the identity, we chose Albertus, designed by Berthold Wolpe in the 1930s. Angular, warm, crafted. A typeface that feels made rather than drawn.

From the logo to bread bags, price cards, vans and digital touchpoints, we built the brand around one idea:
Nothing left to chance.
That's Handwerk.

Today: three bakeries in Munich. Queues every morning. No advertising.

We didn't design a love brand.
We designed something worth loving!

LIVING SYSTEMS — Kettnaker Journal 2026
Rooms that move with life.

The family-run brand Kettnaker has become a dear client over the years to us: for the third consecutive time, we have developed and designed the Journal for Kettnaker — premium furniture manufacturer from Dürmentingen in the Swabian Alps. They are crafting tailor-made sideboards, cupboards, wardrobes and beds of the most durable quality since 1870.

The signature of this edition is the new colour story. We translated the season’s palette into mood boards that begin on the outer cover and migrate, page by page, into the heart of the book in a quiet gradient that carries Kettnaker’s emotional palette across the entire journal and blurs the line between surface and content. Precision in the detail. Calm in the proportion. A journal as an invitation to discover.
