Happy Birthday, Helvetica!
Today's moment in type ubiquity brought to you by the most famous font in the world: Happy Birthday, Helvetica! Now, you're 50!
Yes! Helvetica has also become the first font inducted into the permanent collection of MOMA. I also never knew til the other day that Arial is just a Helvetica knockoff commisioned by Microsoft cause they didn't want to pay for Helvetica! Next time I wanna use Arial, I'll use Helvetica instead!
