Tausend Stencil was developed as a variable font with two axes, one of which offers 800 weights whose gaps or bars can be widened or narrowed in 40 steps via the second axis.

Parallel to the “classic” Tausend with the optical size of Plakat, there is Tausend Soft, the first large static grotesque family with discreetly rounded corners, which has been developed in the same way.

The name of Christoph Koeberlin’s and Gabriel Richter’s new type family says a lot about its quality. It stands for size and diversity, for abundance and potential: a thousand ideas, a thousand possibilities, a thousand reasons. It makes texts mysterious (“One Thousand and One Nights”) and titles a hit: “Thousand Miles”. Tausend sets milestones: a thousand glyphs, a thousand languages, a thousand kerning pairs. Meet Tausend here:
