Andreas ® Std is a display screen serif and art nouveau typeface released by Adobe.

Michael Harvey initially drew the lettering that ended up being the structure for Andreas in 1988 as part of the book jacket style for The Studios of Paris, a Yale University Press publication. In keeping with the book's topic, Harvey desired letterforms that showed the Art Nouveau duration. In addition, the type needed to be narrow enough to fit the title throughout the top so as not to intrude on the Van Gogh painting that filled the remainder of the coat. To achieve this end, he drew the letterforms freehand, giving them shapely stems and the high-waisted appearance attribute of Art Nouveau lettering. He likewise added distinctive junctions to the D, P, and R. The jacket's design further needed that the title reverse out in white. Harvey felt that a solid letter would have been too heavy, so he drew it in overview, which contributes to its elegant, ethereal impression. All of which makes Andreas a great option for wine labels, upscale food product packaging, resort brochures and identities, book style, and publication titling.
