Ghost
Type design, 2025
Ghost is a digital serif typeface, carefully drawn with a raw yet elegant touch. Initially inspired by street lettering and the sharp flow of Ghostface Killah, Wu-Tang Clan honorary member, the typeface has matured and refined over time, evolving from graffiti markers to digital typography, from street to magazine cover, from an old private sketchbook to the world. First released in only two styles, Regular and Italic, the Ghost font family has now grown to welcome new family members, featuring a range of 7 weights and 14 styles in total. The typeface’s calligraphic axis, combined with sharp triangular serifs and a distinct stroke contrast, makes it robust and versatile. Ghost retains a certain delicacy in small sizes, while showing off all its graphic peculiarities when used in large sizes. It is therefore a polyvalent typeface for editorial design, equally suited to a fashion magazine, the cover of a novel or a photographer’s portfolio. Drawn with the help of Nina Faulhaber and Kasper Pyndt Rasmussen. Illustrations by Anton Erdle. TWK Ghost is available on WELTKERN®.
