    The name Futura refers to its geometric sans serif forms with a low contrast and even width strokes. The font was designed by Paul Renner, and first released commercially 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 many major corporations.

    Futura as with all fonts has changed with the evolution of styles of typography. The spacing and the shapes of the letters have changed over time, but the overall aesthetic remains the same. The font has also been modified to work with various languages. The addition of the Latin alphabet made this font more adaptable. Since then, several type foundries have upgraded and redrawn the style.

In the 1960s and 1970s, it was the font of choice for protest art that was political because it was thought as a symbol of progress and modernism.

    In the 1980s, typographers started to utilize Futura to do digital typesetting and phototypesetting. Futura’s letterforms distorting in some instances. Typography often changed the size or shape of letters. This led to a number of mistakes and distortions that were sometimes difficult to rectify. This was particularly true when ligatures were used because they required a very precise adjustment to the height of particular characters.
