A single-weight all-caps display face designed during a stay in Berlin, offering alternate lowercase glyphs and a heavy, blocky character.
About
Bold and blocky, BD Berlin (also released as BD Pankow) was drawn during an extended stay in Berlin and carries that city's blunt, monumental energy. It operates as an uppercase typeface with alternates mapped to the lowercase slots, giving designers some variation within a single style. Coverage spans a solid range of Latin-Extended languages including German, French, Spanish and Scandinavian scripts.
Classification
An all-caps geometric display typeface described as bold and rock-solid, with alternate lowercase characters. Its blocky, wall-like construction places it firmly in the display category rather than a functional text face.
