Gabriel Richter studied communication design at Düsseldorf University of Applied Sciences from 2010 till 2015. During this time, he became interest in typedesign right away during a workshop of Jakob Runge and Max Kostopoulos. After working on experimental typeprojects, Richter absolved an internship at FontShop International in 2013, where he developed a more detailed knowledge in typedesign, as well as all the things behind a typeface: Font production, hinting and font marketing. After his Bachelor project, in which he developed the grotesque Richter Grotesk (now called ’FF Infra‘, published at FontFont), he worked as freelancer in graphic design, and typedesign till he ultimately created nice to type (formerly übertype) in 2017. Since 2016 Richter teaches typedesign at Düsseldorf University of Applied Sciences.
