Background
Brunner’s success, as evidenced by Akkurat’s rapid appearance around the world — including Al Gore’s book An Inconvenient Truth, Prada’s website, and a forthcoming version of the font for Nike Basketball — suggests the range of his appeal. The typeface embodies both his creativity in creating a distinctive design, as well as his restraint and ability to avoid the attention-getting extravagances that can prevent typefaces from seeing wide use.
Notable usage:
- The book Josef Muller-Brockmann by Kerry William Purcell is set in Akkurat.
