ABOUT

OGJ Type Design [Oliver Jeschke]

Aka OGJ, Oliver Jeschke is based in Berlin. With Oliver Mayer (Tatin, Basel), he created the avant garde linear grotesk typeface family Version 1 International (2013). The typeface family, characterized by upward diagonal strokes in the f, h, m, n and u, was published by Volcano. Volcano writes: The Version 1 font family is a mannered geometric linear-grotesque, hand-drawn and developed by Oliver Jeschke and Oliver Mayer at Tatin Design Enterprises in Basel, Switzerland and Berlin, Germany. It was created in a three-month training and was further developed in the later stages as OpenType font.

In 2015, influenced by the work of Swiss master designer Max Bill, Oliver Jeschke created the Greek simulation typeface family Bill Display, the sans typeface Bill Corporate, and Bill Corporate Narrow. See aso Bill Corporate Mx (2016) and Bill Display Lowercase.

Spectators Headline (2016) is a breezy semi-informal notebook sans family.

Typefaces from 2017 include Sequel Sans and Sequel Rounded. Calling it a "post-Max Bill design", Sequel Sans was developed in collaboration with the Max Bill Georges Vantongerloo Foundation. In 2018, Sequel 100 Wide and Sequel 100 Black were added to that collection.

Typefaces from 2018: Shapiro (a 32-style grotesk in which horizontal and vertical strokes are nearly identical in width), Temper Wide (slab serif).

Typefaces from 2019: Shapiro Pro (138 styles), Shapiro Base (sans), Darbee Legend (a sans family with cuts named after famous racehorses).

Typefaces from 2020: Sequel Sans VF (the variable font version of Sequel Sans), JT Energy (a great addition to the geometric sans genre featuring optically consistent line thickness; it comes with two condensed styles called JT Energy Placard, and with JT Energy Variable).

Typefaces from 2021: JT Collect (a 14-style grotesk used by Nike).

Typefaces from 2022: Sequel Geo (an 82-style Swiss sans family)..
