Olaf Nicolai
Nicolai. A New Font.
A Project by Olaf Nicolai
Asked about what was left of utopian thinking, the Berlin-based artist Olaf Nicolai confessed to art born out of collaboration. To prove that art is not an extraordinary achievement of one single person, he commissioned Stephan Müller to design a digital typeface.
The result is an alphabet based on a simple square, employing the principle of layering. Through combining the three available layers, the actual type is constructed; additionally, a colour can be assigned to each layer. The resulting typeface, named simply «Nicolai», comes in two different shapes: as a set of three fonts (one for each layer), and as a Shockwave application, programmed by Jürg Lehni, which allows changing the colours of each layer easily.
