Joerg Ewald Meissner

Designer at Elsner&Flake of the "BB Afrodite typefaces" in 1995: EF Biba Babe, EF BornFree (hardcore grunge), EF Craze, EF It, EF Jame, EF Literally, EF Little Joe. His fonts are of the destructive type. All fonts co-designed with Gerd Sebastian Jakob. Other fonts with Jakob at Linotype: Linotype Dharma (1997, a gorgeous display font), Linotype Tiger (1997, a jungle font), Puritas (2002, ornaments done as part of the TakeType 4 pack) and CaseStudyNo1 (2002, part of the TakeType 4 pack). As Koma Amok, Gerd Sebastian Jakob and Jörg Ewald Meißner, both located in Stuttgart, designed not only the funky E&F typeface Afrodite, but also Materia Pro (2010-2011, an octagonal typeface family), Optiscript EF (2006, a script family), the futuristic typeface Solaris EF (Elsner&Flake, 2000), Autograph Script EF (1998, a handwriting font family), and Caligari Pro (2011: a German expressionist typeface inspired by the silent film The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920)).
