[dreː][gríffel] The name combines the word Dreh (twist), a reference to the twist mechanism, and the term Griffel (pen), a name for the oldest writing instrument in the world (from the Greek grapheĩon = writing instrument). The font is derived from the Sütterlin script. The original script was developed by the Berlin graphic artist Ludwig Sütterlin for learning cursive writing, which became the widespread standard in Germany during the 1920s.
Characterised by a love of the product, LEUCHTTURM1917 has developed a brand philosophy which is that everyone discovers and develops their character and their own ideas through writing by hand. The result of this conviction is the guiding principle of LEUCHTTURM1917: Denken mit der Hand - Writing by hand is thinking on paper.
