ABOUT

Andre Maaßen

German designer André Maaßen (b. 1963, Neuss) studied communication design at the University of Wuppertal. In 1994, he founded Atelier für Kommunikationsdesign together with Anne Franke. Additionally, Maaßen has been teaching at the Ruhrakademie in Schwerte since 1992, and has also taught briefly at the University of Wuppertal. His first typeface was the funky calligraphic serif typeface family Varius (2004, Linotype). Varius includes ornamental styles with music notation and standard ornaments, called Livius Musika and Livius Ornaments, respectively. In 2007, he released the 4-style display sans typeface Anno at Linotype. Anno was inspired by the design of a New Year's card for the year 2000.
