Typeface Revival for Haas Recast
Four-axis variable revival of a 1950s faux-Swiss grotesque
Haas Recast is Dalton Maag's revival of a faux-Swiss grotesque sans originally created in the 1950s by Max Miedinger and Eduard Hoffmann for the Haas Type Foundry. Designer Eduardo Rennó led the project, which ran from 2024 to 2026. The update delivers a variable font with four axes—Weight, Width, Italic, and Tracking—with multilingual support across Latin, Cyrillic, and Greek scripts covering more than 800 languages.
