typen14

Typen14 is a typeface designed by the German type designer Hermann Zapf in 1957. It is a modernist sans-serif typeface that was created as part of the International Typographic Style movement, which emphasized clarity, simplicity, and functionality in typography. The name "Typen14" refers to the fact that it was one of the 14 typefaces designed by Zapf for the Swiss publishing house, Stempel AG, in the 1950s.

Typen14 is characterized by its clean, geometric forms and its use of a consistent stroke width throughout the typeface. It has a strong, modernist aesthetic that has made it a popular choice for use in corporate identities, branding, and advertising. The typeface is also known for its versatility, as it can be used in a variety of contexts, from headlines to body text.

In addition to its use in commercial design, Typen14 has also been used in a number of notable publications, including the Swiss magazine "Typographische Monatsblätter" and the German magazine "Typographische Rundschau." The typeface has also been used in a number of notable exhibitions, including the 1957 exhibition "Typographie" at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

Typen14 is available in a variety of weights and styles, including regular, bold, italic, and bold italic. It is also available in a number of digital formats, including OpenType and TrueType. The typeface is widely available for purchase from a number of type foundries, including Linotype, Monotype, and Adobe.
