Fleisch
Delve Fonts · Joachim Müller-Lancé
A two-style blackletter family by Joachim Müller-Lancé, drawing on German childhood memories, 1920s typefaces and cigar-box lettering without adhering to any single historical model.
About
Fleisch comes in two distinct styles at matching weight and similar proportions: Wolf is pointed, slanted and traditional in feel, while Wurst leans squarer and chunkier. The uppercase is deliberately simplified and romanised across both styles to remain legible in all-caps settings, where ornate blackletter capitals typically break down. Each style ships with decorative initials, oldstyle figures, stylistic alternates for letters such as a, k and z, discretionary ligatures, and a small set of ornamental regalia.
Classification
Fleisch is explicitly a blackletter family rooted in the brokenscript (gebrochene Schriften) tradition, drawing on German 1920s typefaces and historical lettering, with a simplified and partially romanised uppercase for legibility.
