Gute Aussichten. New German Photography 2013/14 is published on the occasion of the annual media and exhibition project founded in 2004 to promote young photographers in Germany.

The typeface family used throughout the catalog isDamienby first official use of the yet unreleased fonts. Damien started life in the Type and Media program at the Royal Academy of Arts (KABK) in The Hague. The family spans both Text and Display styles. Its look "evolved from a personal preference for pointy shapes, high contrast and straightforwardness." Damien's striking features include a wedge-shaped 't' bar, a spiky arc for 'a', and diamond-shaped dots — latter are probably made available as an optional stylistic set. Read more about the design process on the Type and Media 2013 website. Schneider plans to release Damien later this year.
