About the typeface
The typefaces Unica have been used throughout the website. Unica has had a conflicted history from the very beginning. Having waited for many years, Haas finally decided to develop a new typeface tailor-made for the technology. They brought in Team 77 to conduct a thorough analysis of four formally related typefaces Akzidenz Grotesk, Neue Haas Grotesk, Helvetica and Univers as a basis for the new design.
