LD Moderne, LD Moderne Fat & LD Alena
Im Juli erschienen bei der Lazydogs Typefoundry gleich zwei komplett neue Schriftfamilien: Die LD Moderne mit ihrer Schwester LD Moderne Fat von Kai Büschl und die LD Alena von Roland Stieger. Bis zum 1. September bekommt ihr als Slanted-Leser mit dem special Code 170711 einen Rabatt auf die tollen neuen Schriften.
Die Lazydogs Typefoundry ist die Schriftenschmiede der beiden Schriftentwerfer Kai Büschl und Oliver Linke. Als Kommunikationsdesigner machen sie aber nicht nur Schriften, sie verwenden sie auch für verschiedenste Layouts zwischen Buch- und Online-Gestaltungen. Das hilft ihnen, Schriften zu machen, welche die hohen Erwartungen professioneller Typografie erfüllen – sowohl bei den Schriften aus ihrer Bibliothek als auch bei maßgeschneiderten Kundenprojekten.
About LD Moderne
The first thoughts Kai Büschl spent on modern style typefaces go back to the days he was a student. The LD Moderne type family is a classic typeface with a different approach in the design concept. A little part of a journey through type history. As our ancestors did in the old times of industrialisation he didn’t only design a thickened variation as a related bold face, but a real slab-serif to take this part.
The LD Moderne typeface family is designed as a group of six weights, each with a dedicated italic version. The first three of them, Display, Subhead and Regular are meant to be used as optical sizes. Which is extremly important for reading and the aesthetic performance of high contrast type designs. The Medium, Bold and Heavy weights are essentially for emphasizing in longer texts. The Moderne Family offers Pan-European language support, four figure sets, small caps, fractions and many more little goodies for the typographic enthusiast.
As a supplement to LD Moderne we added another small family for headline purposes: ›LD Moderne Fat‹ is a bolder version, which comes in 3 more fonts. Again, the weight is added in the thin strokes and not as usual in the main strokes.

About LD Alena
Alena Family was created by Swiss designer Roland Stieger. It is the first comprehensive type design by the well-known creator of numerous award winning graphic design projects. The starting point of his sans serif Alena project was a number of woodcuts by Jost Hochuli (published in 1980) showing capitals, which are based on the proportion of the Roman monumental inscription of the first and second centuries AD. The minuscules are based on a late form of the humanist minuscule. In this sense Alena is a contemporary classic.
The Alena Family is a bundle of 16 fonts: Both Upright and Italics include Small Caps and come in 8 weights. The glyph set supports all Latin languages for professional use in multi-language typography. Additional glyphs such as various figure sets, alternates for ›a‹ and ›g‹ or a set of basic symbols and arrows make the Alena Family suitable for many different fields of high-quality typesetting
