MartinPlusFonts [Martin Wenzel] MartinPlusFonts is the Berlin-based foundry of Martin Wenzel, a German type designer (b. Berlin, 1969). Graduate of KABK Den Haag in 1998. From 1998 until 2005, he worked at Buro Petr van Blokland + Claudia Mens. Martin now runs MartinPlus, first in The Hague, The Netherlands, and relocated to Berlin in 2005. He is also affiliated with Kombinat Typefounders. His oeuvre: FF Marten (1991). FF Rekord (grunge). The award-winning sans serif font FF Profile (1999), a flared sans known for its little contrast. This evolved in a semi-hand-printed casual teenager, FF Duper (2009). At FUSE 6, he created FUSE Schirft, now sometimes called Wenzel Schrift. At FUSE 3, he created InTegel (1991), a font like Boris Mahovac's Kalendar. FF Primary (1995, chiseled stone look). Daela (free, this font evolved into FF Primary). MediaPigeons (experimental, free). Trinité Sans (based on Bram de Does' Trinité). Ode (2010): a restaurant menu family, angular yet rounded. This type family evolved from Textura into a slightly broken readable set, in the German expressionist genre. Realist (2011), Realist Narrow and Realist Wide. A sans family that can be bought at Kombinat Typefounders. Old web site. Fontshop link. Klingspor link. View Martin Wenzel's typefaces.
