Marx grew from our custom typeface Forum, designed for Forum Schlossplatz's new identity. It's a versatile grotesk inspired by the building's neoclassical architecture and, more unexpectedly, curious lettering found on a 1969 postage stamp.

Marx combines the robust proportions of mid-century grotesques with precise geometric construction. Its circular forms run consistently through the character set, creating visual harmony while remaining flexible across contexts. With refined ligatures and multiple stylistic sets offering subtle variation, it balances sharpness and softness to hold authority without rigidity.

The result performs equally well in editorial layouts, digital interfaces, signage, and wayfinding—a grotesk built for contemporary communication.
