[ENG] Barely a dozen years ago, it seemed incredible to me that type designers of the stature of Ramiro Espinoza could have the slightest interest in knowing what I was doing in my workshop. But the truth is that thanks to BunkerType I was able to personally meet many admired professionals.

@retypefoundry had presented Kurversbrug, a revival of the typeface from the iconic signs on Amsterdam’s bridges. The typeface, always materialized in iron, then became a vector element, and with our project we wanted to use it transformed into a wooden alphabet. From there came these compositions that we simply enjoyed and shared with our friends…
(Kurversbrug is part of the Brutal Types collection, the foundry that Ramiro, together with
@paulamastra , has just launched, focused on revivals of avant-garde alphabets created by architects, craftsmen, and designers during the interwar period of the 20th century.)
