    XVI. Der ästhetische Wert eines Kunstwerks ist abhängig vom Grade der Bestimmtheit der ästhetischen Akzente.
  • Display Thin Oblique
    The phenomena of nature or of pictorial form become transposed to a new plane where the relationships of the elements begin to break away from objectivity and establish a new kind of order.
  • Display Light
    Bei der Betrachtung der Abbildungen dieses Buches vergegenwärtige man sich: Die knappe Ausnutzung von Zeit, Raum, Stoff und Geld in Industrie und Wirtschaft bestimmt entscheiden die Faktoren der Gesichtsbildung für alle modernen Bauorganismen.
  • Display Light Oblique
    The ethical necessity of the New Architecture can no longer be called in doubt. And the proof of this—if proof were still needed—is that in all countries Youth has been fired with its inspiration.
  • Display Regular
    In 1919, I lived in Vienna, lost among the depressed conformists of the postwar period. Coming from a farm in the agricultural center of Hungary, I was less intrigued with the baroque pompousness of the Austrian capital than with the highly developed technology of industrial Germany.
  • Display Regular Oblique
    They became, for instance, the stimulus for a new typography; they affected photography, advertising, the motion picture, the theater, and have had many repercussions on our whole life today.
  • Display Medium
    To sum up: the foundation of a flourishing modern school of architecture depends on the successful solution of a series of closely connected problems.
  • Display Medium Oblique
    Our modern system of production is imposed labor, a senseless pursuit, and, in its social aspects, without plan; its motive is to squeeze out profits to the limit. This in most cases is a reversal of its original purpose.
  • Display Bold
    The creative human being knows (and suffers from it) that the inherent values of life are being destroyed under the pressure of moneymaking, competition, and trade.
  • Display Bold Oblique
    The stronger the aesthetic experience the more completely will the objective, natural appearance of the object of the experience be annihilated.
  • Display Heavy
    In 1966, Breuer completed the Whitney Museum of American Art at 945 Madison Avenue on Manhattan’s Upper East Side.
  • Display Heavy Oblique
    Meyer favoured measurements and calculations in his presentations to clients, along with the use of off-the-shelf architectural components to reduce costs.
  • Display Black
    Our modern system of production is imposed labor, a senseless pursuit, and, in its social aspects, without plan; its motive is to squeeze out profits to the limit. This in most cases is a reversal of its original purpose.
  • Display Black Oblique
    The ethical necessity of the New Architecture can no longer be called in doubt. And the proof of this—if proof were still needed—is that in all countries Youth has been fired with its inspiration.

Typeface information

GT Era reimagines the warmth and idiosyncrasies of early grotesk typefaces for our own era. These pre-modernist tools were being pushed to their extremes in the radical designs of the modernist movements—like Bauhaus and De Stijl—of the period. The typeface shuns neutrality and embraces friction, championing recognition over uniformity and flavor over conformity.
