DESIGN IS ATTITUDE "Helmut Schmid… his typography has rhythm… It is created by the eye and resembles a musical score."
Wim Crouwel, Amsterdam

The present monograph documents and analyzes all of Hemlut Schmid's important works form 1961 until today: functional graphic concepts, lettering, product and packaging identities, and poster and book designs. It draws upon the results of a multi-year research project at the design department of the Fachhochschule Düsseldorf, Germany.

Adrian Frutiger – Typefaces Adrian Frutiger first came to the design world's attention in the late 1950s with his design of Univers and the numbering concept behind it. A considerable proportion of his output has also been informed by developments in typesetting technology. In the 1970s he set a standard for signage typefaces with his Alphabet Roissy for the Paris-Roissy airport. Slightly reworked, this went on to enjoy great success as a body typeface under the name Frutiger. His machine-readable OCR-B, which is used on paying-in slips, passports, credit cards and as ISBN numbers on books, has become an official ISO standard. His sans serif typefaces Avenir and Vectora, which appeared at the end of the 1980s, stand out because of their exceptional readability, and have cemented Frutigers reputation as 'Mr Sans Serif'.
The Complete Works is based on interviews and conversations with the designer and on comprehensive research by the editors. Its depth and range make it an indispensable reference work. Completed in the year of Adrian Frutiger's 80th birthday, it represents, as is his wish, his legacy to further generations of type designers and typographers.
