This typeface, designed by Max Miedinger and other project members at the Haas’sche Schriftgiesserei, has become one of the most famous and popular typefaces in the world, thanks to the marketing strategy of Stempel and Linotype. In 1983, D. Stempel AG redesigned and digitized the Neue Helvetica typeface for Linotype and made it a self-contained font family. Today, this family consists of 51 different font weights. The Neue Helvetica sets new standards in terms of its form and number of variants. It is the quintessential sans serif font, timeless and neutral and can be used for all types of communication.
