The Designers
Thomas Ackermann studied Communication Design at Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften Hamburg and Shenkar School of Engineering and Design in Tel Aviv. He worked as freelance designer for blottodesign in Berlin and teaches typography at the design department of HAW Hamburg. He specializes in corporate design, typography and type design favouring big letters in architectural spaces. In 2010, he founded PBLC - Büro für Visuelle Kommunikation with three other partners in Hamburg.
Felix Bonge was born in 1982 in Hamburg, Germany. He got first in touch with typedesign in 2005, studying Communication Design at the HAW Hamburg. From the second semester on he was hooked on type, thanks to Jovica Veljović and his typedesign class. Having had some experience with calligraphy before, this was a totally new and exciting insight in the world of lettershapes. From then on he further specialized on typography and type design, leading up to his first commercial release, Levato. Since 2012 he teaches type design at the HAW Hamburg and is part of the design studio allerzeiten, where he works on everything type-related and draws new typefaces in the meantime.
