Helvetica

  

        Helvetica is commonly used font in U.S and other parts of the world. This famous font is used by alot of businesses and is more approved than other font type. Its mostly used as typography by typography designers in businesses. I think this type of font is a little too common because its shown everywhere in businesses and governmental proposes.


       Helvetica was created in 1957 by a guy named max miedinger, a font designer that had help from another person named Eduard Hoffmann. The font its self is a typeface that is neutral in almost any type of signage. When it was being developed helvetica was being used on steel in order to use it on different signage.
