The Three Iconic Typefaces Designed By Adrian Frutiger
Book Cover Design | Stationery
A series of book covers and bookmarks design inspired by three typefaces created by Swiss type designer Adrian Frutiger—Avenir, Frutiger and Univers.
Rooted in the Swiss design style’s dynamic use of shape and colour, the cover designs also draw inspiration from the fundamental relationships within the primary colour wheel. The overlapping rings on each cover symbolise the significance of Frutiger’s three essential typefaces in typography—each distinguished by its solid appearance and functional clarity.
Each cover features a close-up photo of Adrian’s hands holding a pen, emphasising the spirit of craftsmanship in his type design journey and evoking the sense of a typeface in the making.
