Stakkat Poster

For the release of the Stakkat type family, type designer René Bieder collaborated with Stockholm based graphic designer Perniclas Bedow from the eponymous design studio, to create a poster celebrating the release of the family. The design incorporates a musical theme reflecting the name of the typeface. The displayed numbers are the birth years of Bedow's family members.

The Stakkat family is inspired by Clarendon, a slab serif typeface developed in London in 1845. The family takes the basic forms of Clarendon and brings them into a modern context. Features are exaggerated or simplified to create a sharp, contemporary look. The name is derived from the term "staccato," a musical articulation where successive notes are distinctly separated. The playing style reminded the Bieder of the angularity of the typeface.
