Adrian Frutiger

The aim of this ISTD brief was to produce a prestigious publication that celebrated the life of the Swiss typographer Adrian Frutiger. I decided to focus my project on his 3 most famous typefaces: Univers, Frutiger and Avenir.
I decided early on that I wanted to create 3 publications, one for each typeface. I created the grid for each publication based on the structure of each typeface, using the descender, baseline, x-height and ascender.  Each grid is therefore slightly different for each book but this may not be noticeable to the reader. The publications are in chronological order of when each typeface was created: Univers (1957), Frutiger (1975) and Avenir (1988). The aesthetics of the publications relate to a quality of the typeface but the contents relates to Adrian Frutiger.
