- In typography, Erbar or Erbar-Grotesk is a sans-serif typeface in the geometric style, one of the first designs of this kind released as type. Designer Jakob Erbar's aim was to design a printing type which would be free of all individual characteristics, possess thoroughly legible letter forms, and be a purely typographic creation. His conclusion was that this could only work if the type form was developed from a fundamental element, the circle. Erbar-Grotesk was developed in stages; Erbar wrote that he had originally sketched out the design in 1914 but had been prevented from working on it due to the war. The original version of Erbar was released in 1926, following Erbar's "Phosphor" titling capitals of 1922 which are very similar in design. (en)
- Erbar is een schreefloos lettertype ontworpen rond 1922 door Jakob Erbar. Het was het eerste zogenaamde geometrische schreefloze lettertype. Erbars doel was om een drukletter voor alledaags gebruik te ontwerpen, die geen duidelijk specifieke eigenschappen vertoont, een grote leesbaarheid heeft, en vooral een typografisch zuivere harmonie heeft. Zijn uitgangspunt daarbij is dat dit doel bereikt kon worden door gebruik te maken van een fundamenteel element: de cirkel. (nl)
