With Syntax™, Hans Eduard Meier wanted to prove that even a grotesque can be eminently legible. Even today, the prejudice that sanserifed typefaces are less legible than serifed typefaces has stubbornly remained. This conservative attitude definitely originates with unsuccessful attempts by Meier’s predecessors. Paul Renner began Futura® with essentially similar intentions, but followed the dogmatism of the Bauhaus too much. Even Otl Aicher never managed to prove that his Rotis® Sans was as [...]

Meier wanted to subtly express the rhythmical dynamism of written letters and at the same time produc
