When the Roissy Charles de Gaulle Airport was being planned in Paris in the early 1970s, it was clear that the signage needed to be set in a clear and legible typeface.
The development of the navigational system was left to Adrian Frutiger and the result was so effective that the demand for the typeface rose, for general printing as well as navigational systems. The typeface entered the Linotype Library in 1977 under the name Frutiger™. It set a new standard not ony for signage, but everywhere [...]
Legibility with a concise character: this is only the beginning of the fascination of the Frutiger typeface. The typeface is based on old face forms and proportions, but is not constructed, rather, places emphasis on form.

About Frutiger® Next Basic 1 Value Pack ...
Frutiger® Next Basic 1 Value Pack belongs to the Frutiger® Next Font Family which is part of the Platinum Collection.
In the classic Frutiger typeface family, which was constantly being expanded by new weights, the stroke weights was increased by mathematical doubling. Hence, the optical contrast between weights, for example, light and roman, was larger as that between bold and ultra bold. Frutiger Next now has three styles, regular, italic and condensed, each with six weights. The weights are no longer mathematically linear, rather, based on the optical, aesthetic criteria behind the concept of the typeface.
The bold weights are more concise and the typeface has an individual, not constructed, character.
Frutiger Next is a typeface family from the Platinum Collection. This series was created for the highest quality demanded by professional typography using the newest technology and serving the specific needs of corporate design and similar projects.
