The name "Futura" refers to its geometric sans-serif designs and low-contrast strokes, even widths. The font was created by Paul Renner, and first commercially released in 1927. It was an immediate success and soon found its ways into newspapers, magazines and books, as well as onto posters and the logos of a variety of major corporations.
Like all fonts, Futura has evolved over the years as typographic styles have changed. The spacing and the shapes of the letters have changed over time however, the overall style remains the same. The font has also been modified to work well with different languages. The addition of the Latin alphabet made this font more versatile. Since then, many type foundries have redrawn and improved the style.
While many contemporary fonts are heavily influenced by Art Deco designs, Futura is a perfect example of a design that is a model for the future. Its simple lines and smooth edges make it easy to read and easy to look at. its retro-futuristic style is evident in the use of it in 2001: A Space Odyssey and also for the memorial plaque left by the Apollo 11 astronauts on the moon.
Its simplicity and accessibility made it suitable for both advertising and editorial design. Its use in these two fields contributed to its popularity. In the century since its launch, it has become one of the most well-known fonts ever created. The popularity of the font inspired other designers to develop fonts similar to it, and today it remains one of the most popular fonts.
The font's clean lines and geometric forms have inspired a new generation of artists. Shepard Fairey and Jenny Holzer, both feminist artists, have used it in their art. In the 1960s and 1970s, it was the most popular font for political protest art as it was seen as embodying the idea of modernity and progress.
In the 1980s, typographers began to utilize Futura to set type in digital format and for phototypesetting. Futura's letterforms distorted in some cases. It was also common for typesetting to change the shape of a letter or to alter its size. This resulted in a variety of errors and distortions, which were sometimes difficult or impossible to fix. This was especially true when ligatures were added, as these required a precise adjustment to the height of specific characters.
