Berlin-based designer at Primetype of these typefaces:

• The simple sans family PTL Maurea (2004).
• The free sans/techno fonts Share and Share-TechMono (2005) and the large Pro family Share, which was designed as a corporate type family for Typo3.
• The techno family PTL Highbus (2006).
• The quirky serif family PTL Sadgirl (2006).
• With Jenny Horn, he designed the pixel faces PiPaA35, PiPaB35, PiPaC35, PiPaD35 (2002).
• Colaborate (2003) is free.
• Axel (2009): developed jointly with Erik Spiekermann and Erik van Blokland, it is a system font with these features:
  • Similar letters and numbers are clearly distinguishable (l, i, I, 1, 7; 0, O; e, c #).
  • Increased contrast between regular and bold.
  • High legibility on the monitor via Clear Type support.
  • Seems to outperform Courier New, Verdana, Lucida Sans, Georgia, Arial and Calibri, according to their tests (although I would rank Calibri at or above Axel for many criteria).

Around 2011-2012, he set up Carrois Type Design in Berlin. Old Dafont link.
