"inspired by the deficiencies in emerging typesetting technology with its clumsy rendering of type, Crouwel developed a theoretical solution using only horizontal and vertical strokes. Crouwel intention was to provoke a dialogue on the impactof new technology as opposed to creating a functional font." about New Alphabet
"the juxtaposition of the classical along side futuristic, representing an attempt to looking forward whilst evoking the past"
on Joy Division covers
