Designer: Paul Renner Foundry: Bauersche Giesserei Country of origin: Germany Release year: 1927 Classification: Sans Serif, Geometric Sans Fututa is one of the most well-known prototypical Geometic typeface that was entirely made of straight lines and clrcular shapes. Its original concept was based on the Bauhaus design philosophy that form follows function. Futura uses basic geometric proportions with no weight stresses, serifs, or frills, with long ascenders and descenders that give it more elegance than most sans serif typefaces.
