The concept originated as a joke but when Schwartz proposed the idea to House Industries, they convinced him to follow through with the concept. Neutraface Slab is a derivative of Neutraface in a slab serif style, following the style of geometric slab-serif popular in the interwar period.2 was released by House Industries in 2007. It is described by Schwartz as a "director's cut" of the original typeface, with the main change being its raised crossbars, reducing the eccentricity of the design and increasing its suitability for body text. 2 is a revision of Neutraface made by Schwartz in response to what he perceived to be a demand for a "more 'normal' Neutraface". It was released by House Industries in 2004.

Neutraface Condensed is an adaptation of Neutraface with a condensed width that Schwartz began to develop as soon as he and his colleagues realized how popular the original series was.Neutraface was originally released with Display and Text styles. The inline, slab and slab stencil styles are visible. Styles Īlphabet blocks in the Neutraface typeface. Neutraface Text has a larger x-height than its display counterpart and increased stroke contrast. Īlthough Neutraface was conceived as a display and headline typeface, Neutraface Text was created to complement Neutraface Display. The lowercase was influenced by Avenir, Futura, Nobel and Tempo. Since there were limited samples of Neutra's signage and no lowercase, much of the design was Schwartz's invention. The Neutraface alphabet was developed through consultation with Neutra's son and former partner, Dion Neutra, and with reference to the signs on the buildings designed by Neutra. It was the result of a project started by Schwartz to design "the most typographically complete geometric sans serif family ever", based on Richard Neutra's principles of architecture and design. Neutraface was designed by Christian Schwartz over the period of a year with assistance in art direction from Ken Barber and Andy Cruz.
