Helvetica Sans Font or Neue Haas Grotesk was launched in 1957 by Swiss designer Max Miedinger in collaboration with Eduard Hoffmann. Helvetica is typeface that is based on neo-grotesque concept and was designed with inspiration from Akzidenz-Grotesk of the 19th century and other German and Swiss fonts of that period. It was firmly associated with the International Typographic Style developed by Swiss designers in the 1950s and the 1960s and became one of the most popular fonts of all time.
Original Helvetica is easily recognizable by certain characteristics, among which can be mentioned the high x-height – the height of the end of the stroke, both vertical and horizontal – and very tightly spaced letters that make for a rather compact and dens texture.
