SKYLINE PANORAMIC VIEW OF SEATTLES SKYLINE
Helvetica was a rather peculiar documentary film. It managed to bridge the gap between what one might believe is a boring subkect and what one might view as an engaging film. The film was all based on typefaces, particuarly the swiss typeface known as ‘Helvetica’. The film contained a large quantity of information about who created the typeface, when it was created, why it was created and the many purposes for which it could be and still is used. Helvetica was in fact developed in 1957 by Max Miedinger
with Eduard Hoffmann at the Haas’sche Schriftgiesserei (Haas type foundry) of Münchenstein, Switzerland. Haas hadset out to design a new sans-serif typeface that could compete with Akzidenz-Grotesk in the Swiss market. The film takes you through various interviews with different typeface designers who express their opinions on the famous font. A common view expressed by the interviewees was how universal Helvetica was. The way it could be used so effectively in so many different contexts and situations was
10
truly enlightening. One quote by a designer being interviewed spoke about Helvetica was like off-white in its nature. No one really notices or cares about it, and yet it is always there doing its job in the most civilized of ways, doing exactly what it was designed for. The film showed various examples of places where Helvetica is used and it is really quite fascinating to see the contrast of situations in which it is used and yet how the typefaces somehow manages to fit perfectly into every situation, creating a different context
or feeling according to how it is used.Some of the examples mentioned in the film include ‘American apparel’, ‘Coca-Cola’ and even road and street signs. You can evidently see therefore that it has so many uses and such universality that it some how has just become a part of our nature rather than a creation of it. One of my favourite quotes from the film came from Mike Parker, a typographer and type-designer, who spoke about the solidity of Helvetica and how it is designed with negative space in mind.
“When you talk about the design of Haas Neue Grotesk or Helvetic, what it’s all about is the interrelationship of the negative shape, the figure-ground relationship, the shapes between characters and within characters, with the black, if you like, with the inked surface. And the Swiss pay more attention to the background, so that the counters and the space between characters just hold the letters. I mean you can’t imagine anything moving; it is so firm. It not a letter that bent to shape; it’s a letter that lives in
11
a powerful matrix of surrounding space. It’s… oh, it’s brilliant when it’s done well.” I feel this quote is extremely effective in summing Helvetica up. It is not so much the black letters that are designed, but rather the blank space around the letters that have been shaped to form a beautifully clean typeface that seems so solid and set in its roots that it will never budge from its place on the paper, just as it will never budge from its place in our
world.
