Neue Haas Unica (2014-2015) ĭesigned by Toshi Omagari for Monotype, this is a revival based on the Team '77's Unica phototypesetting files found in the Monotype's archive in Germany. Modern Revivals Unica Intermediate (Unreleased) Ĭreated by Louise Paradis, this revival was never publicly released. Unica SH has tighter letter spacing than Unica SB. However, it has been suggested that this typeface has two optical sizes, namely SB (Scangraphic Body designed for body text) and SH (Scangraphic Headline designed for headings and display). As the typeface is no longer legally available, its technical details have become unclear. Until 2008 there was a digital implementation available from Scangraphic in the fontstore of Elsner+Flake, but this implementation had to be removed from the market because Linotype claimed the copyright of the defunct Haas Type Foundry.

Because of the rise of desktop publishing software and an ownership dispute, the typeface disappeared very soon from the market. The result was a hybrid of mainly Helvetica and Univers, which gave it the name Unica (a portmanteau of Univers and Helvet ica), but they incorporated also features of other typefaces, like Akzidenz-Grotesk. The task was given to Team ’77 (André Gürtler, Christian Mengelt and Erich Gschwind). During the 1970s Haas decided to introduce an updated version of Helvetica for electronic on-screen phototypesetting. Neue Haas Grotesk) and Univers were from then on held by the same company. The latter was the holder of the copyright of the Univers. In 1972 the now defunct Haas Type Foundry (Switzerland) bought its french competitor Deberny & Peignot. In 2015, two digital revivals were released: one by the rights holders, and the other with the blessing of the team that originally developed it. Initiated as a project that sought to combine the strengths of both Helvetica and Univers, it had the misfortune of being released for phototypesetting just as the technology was being made obsolete by desktop publishing, and subsequent corporate mergers and a copyright dispute kept a digital version off the market. Unica or Haas Unica is a neo-grotesque sans-serif typeface developed at Haas Type Foundry in the late 1970s and originally released in 1980.
