PTL Roletta was illustrated very nicely by Eike König’s Hort for the exhibition CAPITAL: Berliner Buchstaben, organized and curated by Mota Italic.
Presse release from Mota Italic, a great typefoundry, located just around the corner from my studio:
CAPITAL: Berliner Buchstaben:
This exhibition exists to celebrate the diversity of Berlin's surprisingly large type community. We have paired the typefaces of 27 Berlin-based type designers with the work of 27 local illustrators/designers/artists. This relatively small collection features the work of a wide variety of individuals—from life-long designers to recent graduates and from design ‘celebrities’ to students. Most participants are employed full time as type/graphic designers or illustrators, but for some, their work represented here is more of a passionate side project. Through these images, one can easily appreciate the diversity of the local design scene and a taste of the current visual gestalt.
