Helvetica was largely relegated to the class of ‘untouchable’ typefaces in the mid-1980’s through the 1990’s by American avant garde graphic designers, primarily driven by the experimental programs at the Cranbrook Academy of Art and CalArts, and disseminated through Emigre magazine.
Neue Helvetica, from 1983, has added ultra thin and thick weights to extend the rational family system, and offers graphic designers choices that the ‘resident font’ Helvetica users don’t have.
