Neue DIN

Rethink DIN

Is it possible to rethink the German design icon?

For the sake of its timelessness and longevity, we are convinced that you have to! With a compact overall impression, extreme widths, a variable-first approach and a touch of elegance, we have combined the requirements of the digital world with modern German engineering. The DIN typeface has been thoroughly reimagined in a way that our brand new flexible incarnation breathes life into the Normschrift standard. And just like 100 years ago …

Variable First

Unlike 100 years ago, when the focus was on reproducibility, Neue DIN is a dynamic answer to a dynamic world and is variable first.

Made in Berlin

by Andreas Frohloff, Hendrik Weber, Olli Meier for Berlin-based type foundry Fontwerk.

Made for today

Neue DIN is 100% CSS compatible. Providing a stringent interplay of 81 static upright fonts which correspond to W3C’s CSS specifications.

Extreme widths

We went above and beyond and added extreme widths that have never been seen in a DIN typeface before – from XXCondensed to XXWide.

Italic & Retalic

We designed not ‘only’ the 81 normal oblique fonts, but also the same number of backslanted variants.

Elegance

All vertical curves are round, have no straight lines and swing easily, which gives the typeface a touch of elegance.

435 Languages

Neue DIN includes an additional 100 Latin-based languages that have often been overlooked. More languages will be added later.

AWARDS

Neue DIN’s quality has been recognized by the German Design Award, iF Design Award, Communication Arts Award of Excellence, ADC, ADC*E and Hiiibrand.

Features

Alternative forms for Q, a, u, r, l, 6, 7, and 9, round dots and arrows, different figure sets, numerals in circles and squares complete the variable overall picture.
