Blackletter, as known as Gothic, is an old-fashioned font used to be popular throughout  Europe. Western Europe utilized it in the 12th-17th century, while Denmark applied it until 1875. Meanwhile, Germany, Estonia and Latvia, have used it until the 20th century.

This font’s character is in the mixture of thick and thin scratch to produce a letter. Many people call it “dramatic contrast” which is so illegible that people do not use it for modern texts.

At this time, designers have used the blackletter font to create a variety of designs in gothic and eccentric vibes. Blackletter also relates to punk, street art and heavy metal. The influence of modern medieval and rebellion results in the gloomy, cool, dramatic blackletter looking.
