Moderne Fraktur

by Dieter Steffmann · Website

Moderne Fraktur is a bold blackletter face by Dieter Steffmann, one of the most prolific digitizers of historical German and European typefaces. The letterforms follow traditional Fraktur conventions with their characteristic broken strokes and dense, angular rhythm, but carry enough weight and clarity to hold up well in modern headline use. A strong choice for beer labels, certificates, Germanic cultural projects, or any design that calls for authentic blackletter presence without the illegibility that plagues many Fraktur revivals.
