ABOUT

Michael Neugebauer

Austrian type designer (b. 1950), son of the famous calligrapher Friedrich Neugebauer. He designed these typefaces:

• Cirkulus or Circulus (1970, Letraset). A hairline art deco typeface. See also Cirkulus (Linotype), and a version by Elsner & Flake.
• Lietera (1983, Letraset). See also Litera EF (Elsner+Flake) and Litera (Linotype). Also sold by URW++ and Scangraphic.
• Squire (Letraset), 1980. MyFonts says 1987. See also4 Squire (Linotype) and Squire (ITC). SoftMaker revived it as Status (2012) and Castcraft as OPTI Sinehan.
• Twice (1972, double-lined).

Controversy: Soraya (2004, by Karl Nayeri of Prime Graphics) seems like a copy of Cirkulus. FontShop link.
