“Inspired by the hand lettering of 20th-century book designer and calligrapher Oscar Ogg, Lucas Sharp’s typeface Ogg captures the unique mix of forms Ogg achieved through his use of hand-carved pen nibs, brushes and white out. The signature moves found throughout the designer’s calligraphic works were explored, exaggerated and refined in the high-contrast design space of Ogg. The superfamily amalgamates disparate references and ideation, acting as both an inventive homage to one of the great underappreciated lettering artists of the 20th century as well as a new take on calligraphic text typography.”
