  • FSI: FF Meta Offc Condensed Normal
    fontfont opentype® ▪▪▪▪▪▪������ fontfont info guide for ff Meta Condensed Normal Offc | Offc Pro or Web | Web Pro Sections a | Font and Designer Information b | Language Support c | Type Specimens section a FONT & DESIGNER INFORMATION Handgloves about ff Meta Condensed Normal ff Meta was originally (1985) conceived as a typeface for use in small point sizes. Against its intended purpose, ff Meta very quickly became one of the most popular typefaces of the computer era, and has been referred to as the Helvetica of the 90s – not necessarily a compliment. It is used a lot in magazines, from the Normal weight in small point sizes for captions up to the Black version for large headlines. Hairline, Thin and Light were added in 2003. Once a publishing house commissioned a Black Condensed for the headlines of a new magazine. It unfortunately ceased publication after a few issues, but ff Meta Black Condensed survived. This version was the basis for the complete Condensed family, digitized by Ole Schäfer. Since headlines need to be bold before anything else, ff Meta Condensed has one additional weight compared with ff Meta: Extra Bold Condensed, which sits between Bold and Black. ff Meta Condensed contains all weights with Old Style as well as Lining Figures, there are fractions, ligatures, kerned lining figures and also the popular Meta arrows. The normal ff Meta already saves more than 12 % of space compared to a regular sans serif. ff Meta Condensed is another 12 % more condensed without being 24 % less readable. about Erik Spiekermann, born 1947, studied History of Art and English in Berlin.

  • Tracing Meta
    MiraCosta College / oceanside MAT 155 Graphic Design 2 : Typography Min Choi // Fall 2017 TRACING META INFO ABOUT META FF Meta is a humanist sans-serif typeface family designed by Erik Spiekermann and released in 1991 through his FontFont library. According to Spiekermann, FF Meta was intended to be a “complete antithesis of Helvetica”, which he found “boring and bland”. It originated from an unused commission for the Deutsche Bundespost (West German Post Office). Throughout the 1990s, FF Meta was embraced by the international design community with Spiekermann and E. M. Ginger writing that it had been dubiously praised as the Helvetica of the 1990s. FF Meta has been adopted by numerous corporations and other organizations as a corporate typeface, for signage or in their logo. These include Imperial College London, The Weather Channel, Free Tibet, Herman Miller, Zimmer Holdings, Mozilla Corporation, Mozilla Foundation, and Fort Wayne International Airport. Over the 25 years since its inception, the FF Meta family has been extended to include eight weights and two widths, as well as additional companion families, like FF Meta Headline, FF Meta Serif, and FF Meta Correspondence. The original FF Meta typeface has extended to a very flexible superfamily, as fresh as it was when it was born. In 2011, the Museum of Modern Art in New York added digital typefaces to its permanent collection for the very first time. Naturally, because of its significance to typography, FF Meta was one of the works included. FF Meta debuted at MoMA as part of the “Standard Deviations” installation in the contemporary design gallery.

Resmi sanat eğitimini Berlin Serbest Üniversitesi'nden aldı. Öğrenimini, binanın bodrum katında bir tipo matbaa makinesi basarak yaptı. 1970'lerde Londra'ya taşındı ve on yıl boyunca grafik tasarımcısı ve eğitim olarak serbest çalışarak geçti. Film bilgisi ve Wolff Olins gibi çeşitli danışmanlıklar için serbest olarak görev yaptı ve Londra Baskı Okulu'nda ders verdi. 1979'da Spiekermann Berlin'e döndü ve iki tasarımcı ile ortaklaşa MetaDesign’ı kurdu. Firmanın şu anda Londra ve San Francisco'da ofisleri bulunmaktadır. Stüdyo, teutonik görünümlü bilgi tasarımını ve karmaşık kurumsal tasarım sistemlerini bir araya getirme niyetindeydi. Müşteriler için tasarım stüdyosu tarafından üstlenilen önemli projelerden bazıları arasında Audi, Volkswagen, Skoda, Berlin Transit ve Printing sayılabilir. 1980'lerin sonlarında, Spiekermann ile diğer önemli bilgi, Joan Spiekermann, FontShop'u başlattı. FontShop, ilk mail order üreticisi ve elektronik font dağıtıcısıydı. Firmanın FontShop International adıyla uzatılması, FontFont yazı tiplerinin yayınlanmasıyla ilgili olarak kuruldu. Buna ek olarak, Spiekermann, Bremen Sanat Akademisi'nde fahri profesörlük aldı. Pasadena'daki Sanat Merkezi Tasarım Okulu, grafik tasarıma verdiği değerli katkılarından dolayı kendisine fahri doktora verdi. Ayrıca, Alman Tasarım Konseyi yönetim kurulunda üyeliğe sahiptir. 2001'de İngiliz dergisi The Economist'i yeniden tasarladı. Ertesi yıl, Adobe Press için ‘’Koyun Çalmayı Durdurun ve Tipin Nasıl Çalıştığını Bulun.’’ başlıklı yazı tipi kitabını yayınladı. Kitap daha sonra Portekizce, Almanca ve Rusça dahil olmak üzere başka dillerde de yayınlandı. Spiekermann, Nokia için büyük övgüyle karşılanan kurumsal font ailesi oluşturdu ve piyasaya sürdü. Daha sonra Christian Schwartz ile işbirliği yaptı ve yazı ailesini Deutsche Bahn (Alman Demiryolları) ile tanıştırdı.
