He created a number of corporate typefaces, such as an identity typeface for the public channel DR (Danish State Radio and Television) called DR1, DR2 and DRi (Dutch Radio, 2003---this font is by apogs.com, and the Dutch Radio is not the Danish Radio, so I am uncertain as to whether it belongs in this list at all); FRH; KRAT (an Egyptian face); Telia (grunge); Nyco Sans (for NYCOMED); BeoFont (2007; for Bang & Olufson).
