Frutiger was designed by Swiss Typographer Adrian Frutiger. Frutiger was commissioned in 1968 by Charles du Gaulle Airport (France) to design a typeface for the sign system within the airport. The typeface was finished in 1975 and released to the public by Stempel Type Foundry in 1976. Below is the typeface he designed.
Would designing a typeface for a french international airport be any different to designing a typeface for an American International airport? Or would the fact that its an international airport mean that the typeface needs to be quite universal? By saying that I mean very easy to read.
