topsy-turvy type
this wordmark disobeys typographic rules, disdains readability, and disrupts the way our eyes habitually see things. everything is upside down and the wrong way round, the text reads in the wrong direction and the wraps look random. yet the structure, the building, is a picture of stability. which is precisely what architect matthias schmidt wanted: a perfectly balanced typographic composition, striking, extravagant and free-standing. simple as that.
