Christian Gruber is a graphic and type designer based in Halle (Saale), Germany. His practice explores typography as both material and system, working across printed matter such as books and magazines, exhibition and identity design, as well as websites and custom typefaces. Alongside commissioned work, he develops self-initiated projects and publishes typefaces through Scifipoetry.
