Helvetica is probably the world’s most famous sans-serif font—books have been written about it, it has been used in public signage (the New York subway system was an early adopter), transport systems, and even a documentary film was produced about it.
The digital version of Helvetica that everyone knows and uses today is different from the original typeface created in 1957. Originally released as Neue Haas Grotesk, it existed as handset metal type, and some of its original personality traits were lost in translation throughout its adaptation in digital form.
When in the 1950s Eduard Hoffmann, President of the Haas type foundry in Switzerland, commissioned Max Miedinger to design Neue Haas Grotesk, it was an immediate success. Adopted by many graphic designers, it became a hallmark of contemporary Swiss graphic design.
