Jan Sonntag's fonts include the Hildegard family of sans faces (2003, Linotype), which won an award at the Linotype International Type Design Contest 2003 and S Beauty (pixel face). He also designed S Anticar (pixel family), S LegoBits, S Montag (based on an old wooden printing type from the collection of Alex Barbaix), S Sterre, S AnnaBeta (designed under the supervision of Gerard Unger while studying at Gerrit Rietveld), and S Takraf. Free fonts include S Spijner, S Guns, S Selfism (dotted line face), S Pincode. Jan Sonntag operates a Dutch web site, and claims, tongue in cheek, to live in Cadillac, France. His address, intriguingly, is Château Haut-Laroque, 33410 Laroque, France. Free fonts of his, designed from 2001-2004, include BomberNumbers, Selfism-Bold, Selfism, Spijner-Extreme, Spijner-Powerplay, Spijner, Takraf-3d, Takraf-Block, Takraf-Linie, Takraf-VEB (based on the old logotype from the VEB Schwermaschienenbaukombinat Takraf).
