ABOUT







Franz Paul Glass

Franz Paul Glass (b. 1886, Munich, Germany, d. 1964) studied Industrial Design at the College of Arts and Crafts in Munich. Later, he became well-known for his poster designs. He created Glass Antiqua (1912-1913, Genzsch & Heyse), a typeface with a slight art nouveau influence (+Schraffierte Glass Antiqua). Nick Curtis made a bold digital typeface based on this called Half Full NF (2011). Denis Masharov made his digital font Glass Antiqua (2012) available for free at Google Web Fonts. Not to be outdone, Gert Wiescher added his Glass Light family in 2012 to the collection of revivals and extensions.
