Then I think you will like this video talk by Matthew Carter in honor of his friend; Swiss typographer and designer Adrian Frutiger (May 24, 1928 – September 10, 2015).
If you are a type nerd then you are already familiar with Frutiger’s work, and if you never heard of him before — I think Matthew Carter does a great job talking about Frutiger as a world-class typeface designer, and the charming little stories that he shares reveal the humanistic side of Adrian Frutigers and how he related to others, as well as to his surroundings.
