Review of Helvetica (2007) by Kera M — 18 Feb 2011
A selection of the top European and American graphic designers discuss the cultural significance of 'the one font to rule them all', how it's ebbed in and out of fashion, and how typefaces affect the way we see the world and particularly corporate identity.
An intriguing examination of modern visual culture and how much a simple choice of font can say about a product and the image its makers want to project. Helvetica is a surprisingly effective documentary film guaranteed to send you scuttling to font geek websites to find out more.
