KOMMUNE INLINE
Kommune is a typeface inspired by the vernacular shop- and promotion letterings of Burkina Faso. Kommune Inline is a special variant of Kommune, a display font inspired by the vernacular shop- and promotion letterings of Burkina Faso. designed as a stencil typeface for the solo show and accompanying catalogue of Burkina Faso born Architect Francis Kéré (famous for his Laongo Opera Village and communal school buildings) at the Architekturmuseum der TUM, Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich, it is now also available in a new version as a normal, non stencil typeface.
Kommune Inline combines the two extreme weights of Kommune within just one. It is inspired by fancy patterns and groovy shapes of the 1970ies.

The Kommune Riso type specimen
Accompanying the release of Kommune at Laïc:Type Foundry, I designed and printed an A6 Risograph type specimen booklet, dedicated to the idea of community.
The booklet was printed at Auge Lorenz’ ?Risoorkan, Berlin-Wedding.
