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.
