CONCEPT:
Gustella is a masterful design that explores the field of extreme reverse contrast
in multiple variations: Solid, Striped, Inline. The design benefits from Thiemich’s playful-calculated approach to design, but also the precision the digital technology allows for nowadays. So with these ingredients in the background, Gustella has the contrast “volume” turned up to the maximum, making it a juicy and multifaceted typeface with which to design.
