Helvetica

Finally saw the much talked about documentary Helvetica.

It is a nicely made documentary, that is able to draw you into the world of fonts, types and egotistic designers ;) ! The font has had a fairly substantial history (released first in 1957), with a lot of ups and downs through the design fad cycles.

Interesting aspects:

For some fluffy dessert after all the heavy font adoration, just watch CollegeHumor's FontFight :)
