Winco samples the hand-lettered book covers by designers like Helmut Salden and Boudewijn Ietswaart, and draws further inspiration from German and Czech printing types that were influential in the early twentieth century. The marriage of those two sources produced letterforms that appear to be both painted by hand and cut in metal. Thanks to its lightly contrasted strokes with flared, angled endings, and economical shapes with well-defined corners and curves, the versatile Winco adds character to body copy and display type in a multitude of applications.
