A reaction to the subjective functionalism of Parisine. Frutiger Symbols is available in the weights regular, positive and negative.A playfull fancy sanserif typeface in 16 fontsParisine Plus was designed in 1999 as an informal version of Parisine. It can be used for illustrations or a symbol type with its distinctive pictograms. Together with Frutiger Stones this typeface builds a complete design system, which offers endless possibilities. Because of its unique aura, Frutiger Stones is particularly well-suited to different purposes - in headlines and prominent pictograms, as symbol faces, illustrations, and more.Frutiger Symbols is a symbol font of plants, animals and stars as well as religious and mythological symbols. It depicts animals and plants, as well as astrological and mythical signs. Searching for the fundamental elements in nature, he has discovered the pebble, rounded and polished over innumerable years by gently flowing water.And out of this, he has created his complete system, a ruralistic typeface of letters and symbols. Frutiger Stones is for Adrian Frutiger the example of his formal artistic sensibility par excellence. In a virtual synthesis, he seems to close the circle in which the world reflects itself in symbolic forms. Essentially, Adrian Frutiger attempts to fathom the basic, central truth which defines our lives: change, growth, division - beginning and end.
The entire spiritual world becomes readable through letters. Following function, form also necessarily follows the content of the language. They might have developed in the spirit of playfulness, but their nature is always conceptual, directed towards a complex, yet harmonic, whole. However, even his independent work can be understood as objectivized signs in their symbolism, they are embedded in the fundamental questions of human existance. Frutiger's precise sense of outline reveals itself two- or three-dimensionally in wood, stone, or bronze, on printing plates and in the form of reliefs. Personal and intensive, this work is the manifestation of his expressive will. His independent work possesses the controllable language of letterforms. In Adrian Frutiger, the discipline of a mathematically exact mind is joined with an unmistakable artistic sense.
