NN Pivot Grotesk
NN Pivot Grotesk draws inspiration from two key visual principles. On the one hand, there are the radial lines seen in timekeeping and visualizations of walking. On the other, there are the logarithmic spirals found in nature and the Milky Way’s rotation. Blending these elements with the unrestrained style of early grotesques resulted in a typeface that became unique and energetic, moving beyond rational geometry. Originally designed by Nouvelle Noire for Theater Basel in 2020, Pivot Grotesk has been refined and expanded for its 2024 retail release
