Even if it's for browsing and running emulators I'm about to use an older computer even though they fear monger not to do it I was running Windows 7 SMOOTHLY on my computer until I went back to Windows 10 I doubt the code is still useable, but it might be worth trying to install on my modern computer the motherboard was meant for Windows XP. I wish we can ban the End of life policy because it violates consumer rights to the customer's in what they want to spend their money on.
I think Windows 12 needs to bring back the Frutiger Aero route if it wants a chance to thrive or I'm no longer buying anything from Microsoft after Windows 10/11 I wish I had enough to buy an old Windows 7 gaming computer when they were a thing back then I would of gladly turned it into an emulation device over being bound to Steam. I'm about to not use their service if they want communist policies to make you update to newer versions of Windows I will go back to console gaming if I have to and just casually browse the Internet and play older games from the early 2000s you can play without Steam.
I have always wanted to be a part of a huge-huge youtube channel since their inception, and the closest I have come to that is becoming a subscriber of "corridor crew" at around 200k subs. I think I have broke my record by joining you. I am a UI/UX designer and I highly believe that you are one of those channels that one day will have its own production team with 10s if not 100s of millions of subscribers.... Just don't stop what you are doing!
@@ShongoStick You are looking at her organic growth, not the magic that will happen to her. Imagine apple one day mentioning the term "frutiger aero" in their keynote. The people that don't know what that is will hop on to YT to know what they were talking about. and bam the best video with most likes is of her. Now imagine one step further people taking interest in her... She just has to be consistent and honest to her work. I highly believe that she is the only pioneer in her work till now on the platform!
@@nidaysinghal2759 well it's good you are so optimistic, but this type of content simply does not generate those numbers on youtube. Look at the thumbnails and content style of videos that get millions of views. As much as i'd like oldschool topics like this to get millions, they unfortunately are not nearly popular enough or able to hold short attention spans of todays internet.
frutiger aero for me has always represented the feeling of "freshness," mainly since i see it used in a lot of fruit, bubble and water imagery. like the idea of a sunny, sweet and refreshing day! the style being in environment-themed clipart & backgrounds helps that notion. love it!!
i think even some of this overlaps with what people consider liminal spaces, especially the random skyscrapers in the middle of a field of grass, hence the uncanny look
@@Hyperion4K I looked further into it and it's because it got spun off into dreamcore and weirdcore according to the aesthetics wiki, but still gets associated with liminal spaces.
I think Little Big Planet was one of the best dives into frutiger aesthetic, the game has it own style and it remembers alot frutiger aero specially on lbp 3. It is incredible how this game can mix papercraft and frutiger aero design in just one
I love LBP so much. Genuinely have so many memories playing LBP 1 & 2. The Sleepyhead remix makes me cry every time I listen to it. I have so many memories playing online with completely random people, usually people with emo/scenekid sackboys and then playing those jeff the killer levels, those dumb killing Justin Bieber levels, the Bora Bora Island levels, and those Bomb Survival levels and so many more.. sometimes even creating my own levels with my younger brother. I think most we had was 10 people playing our levels. The community was wonderful and there were so many extremely well made levels too. It was fun. Little Big Planet really was a beautiful thing.
@@dwellerintheden7973 i played all the 3 lbp s and i have so many memories of them, the lbp 1 is more focused on papercraft while the lbp 2 is more focused on a futuristic steampunk aestetic and lbp3 is more on a frutiger aero eco
It took me a bit to think about it (only played the first two games, though I do have a PS3 copy of LBP3 somewhere around here), and you're right. LBP's _interface_ did have some frutiger vibes to it for sure...
this is definitely nostalgia talking but i absolutely LOVE frutiger metro and metro design from 2012 - 2014 just something about how colourful and minimal yet complex and when put to motion it had such fluid animations
This brings back memories of when I was a kid in the mid 2000s. I remember seeing Frutiger Aero everywhere! So much so that even my dreams would often be in Frutiger Aero, lol. I associate this aesthetic with my early childhood. I could definitely recognize it when I saw it, but couldn’t quite put my finger on what about it made it so distinct. I didn’t even know it had a name! This video explained it very well. Very underrated channel btw. I could definitely see this channel having a million subs one day.
I walked into an IKEA recently and was immediately taken aback by how strong the Frutiger Aero aesthetic was at play (even the Frutiger font was used almost everywhere!).
I’m very grateful that this channel exists. You’ve definitely gone into a blue ocean of content that is very unique. It has inspired me to (hopefully) take the plunge and actually make CZcams videos. Pretty much all of your videos are topics I could put my finger on but could never actually explain, which I think does the general CZcams public a service. I think that this video and the first Frutiger Aero video are very interesting in that my views of it became a little less positive. The Wii, early Mac OSX, DS, Windows 7, and even the books by Simon Basher are what stick with me as why I really like Frutiger Aero. Yet, there is also a lot of Frutiger Aero that looks really fake and dull, like all those soda machines and fake environmental collages. They feel decidedly different than the examples I mentioned above.
Very informative stuff! I had the biggest nostalgia trip watching this 😪 I personally find the Sims 2 soundtrack to be very associative with this frutiger aero style 🥰
I have always associated the sims 2 and 3 music with the frutiger aero style, there's also a lot of music that released in the early 2010's that give me that nostalgic feeling with there uplifting sound, HIM's "scared to death" is a good example.
Glad to see another video about the topic! Love your calm and articulated way of speaking, keep up the great work - hopefully you will gain many more subscribers in 2023 :)
I've always wanted to know how it was named, and yesterday found this channel by accident. It's so nice to see Frutiger Aero becoming more popular. I remember there was videos about places from dreams, and places feeling 'way too normal', they were really inspiring and calming
after watching your first video about frutiger aero, i have become obsessed with the design since i remembered seeing this design so much when i was younger, especially apple's "aqua" design on mac computers. this video pretty much encapsulates everything that uses this design, even music which i found surprising but it makes sense. this design really gives me a happy feeling whenever i see it. also, i like how your profile picture and banner is also based around the design
Super interesting video! I'd say cars from the 2000s to early 10s definitely carry the Frutiger Aero aesthetic too, with their unique bubbly, round, and slightly cartoonish appearance. Cars from the late 10s-early 20s still retain aspects of the bubbly design but with a slightly "sleeker" look, and some sharper/more defined corners, edges, razor-thin lights etc (the Tesla look comes to mind the most)...
Congratulations for 20k! I woke up to this cool video and wanted to point something out Some people say this aesthetic is like past and future together and i agree, most don't know why though, i think it is because Frutiger Aero was associated in the way we used to see the future back in the 2000s
The most frutiger aero music I can think of is the OST from the UNO game made by Gameloft, the one available on iPod Touch, PSP, Android and other OS of the time - it was 2010s and I loved it sooo much
Great Video, would you consider making a video about the Y2K asthetic overall? That weird, bubbly tech, early 3D graphics, bizzare fashion of Latex and plastic, thousands of little gadges from MP3s to Tamagochis. As well as weird underlying element of Emo culture and edgyness, as well it's mix with the street culture. Damn, Y2K was a LOT
@@InventorZahran Kind of? But also it lost many of it's elements. That freedom enduced spunk of Y2K got completely lost, to the positive futuristic outlook and artificial 'cleanness'. Remember that incredibly nieche world of Cellphone wallpapers? That is an element that i'm kind of talking about. Positive, sterile, yet not afraid of the impact, the *scrape*. It's like a crashed car that has been polished and cleaned to the point where you start to admire the form of destruction rather than the loss of the vechicle. I got sidetracked a bit, but what i meant is that internal excitement of Y2K, and it's willingness to explore many different things that all stem from one idea. Frutiger Areo is like a sidewalk of Y2K as in, it's not the main course, but hell, where would we be without it.
i love this aesthetic more than any other that’s come about in the last few years. (vaporwave and such) it’s so comforting, crisp and clean. it’s the audiovisual equivalent of the smell of laundry detergent to me in a way. I grew up with this whole aesthetic being born in the 2000s. Windows XP, Windows Vista, Samsung TouchWiz, Nintendo DSi and Wii, Android Ice Cream Sandwich and Jellybean, old MP3 players and PDAs and that’s just the tech side. Not to mention stuff like bathroom and kitchen products. Even the packaging for old tech products from back in the day and the smell of a brand new electronics store. I can go on and on! I haven’t even watched the video yet so let me get back to that. Also, I love your content and you’re channel is one of only four I have notifications enabled. Keep up the incredible content!
Im so glad someone mentioning Child of Eden as an Frutiger Areo example. Is not a underrated masterpiece, but at least do what is intended: To make someone happy.
Amazing video! We can definitely feel your passion towards this topic. One thing I find insane about Frutiger Aero is simply the fact that no one even knows it existed. Like you said, it encompassed an entire generation and it's something I personally grew up with, yet we just don't realise it was ever there to begin with.
Frutiger Aero is the type of aesthetic that's hopeful and lively, giving products and anything associated with it personality, unlike the corporate designs we have today, which are often dull and uninspired. I must admit I am a bit biased to frutiger aero simply because I partly grew up with the aesthetic, but I think it's very innovative, and draws connections to the real world in a way that seems fresh; frutiger aero is willing to be experimental, and shapes itself into many forms, while maintaining the core aspect of what makes it good in the first place. I found this channel through your first video, and I'm very happy to see you cover more about this design aesthetic. I also like the niche you're going for on this channel - design aesthetics, and small remarks on past products - and I hope to see this type of content thrive.
Thank you for this! These videos are so culturally significant because Frutiger Aero has influenced countless forms of design-both niche and broad-ranging. You do a great job of inspecting it as the ubiquitous influence that it was!
Congratulations for reaching 20k subscribers, I hope more people get to know your channel! I loved this video, it's cool to learn more about the aesthetic, subcategories, and the various uses during everyday life! The only thing you forgot to talk about was Technozen, which was very popular during the same time as Frutiger Aero and it shares many similarities with the latter. Its philosophy focus on the use of technology as a supplementary addition to everyday life instead of a predominant part of it, and, compared to Aero, it's more minimalistic and Asian-focused instead. The best exemple of the aesthetic would be the Wii and Nintendo DS, as well as the "Wii" series of games and their OSTs. Other than that, this is a amazing extension of your first video about Frutiger Aero, and it's already one of my favorites from your channel! :D 0:11 Also, nice to see the image I made in this video! :) Edit: It would be really cool if you made a video about the (true) Y2K aesthetic, it's one of my favorites as well!
i didn't realize that the colors you mentioned also fall within the frutiger umbrella, and it's interesting since I also feel this sense of optimism seeing plastic chairs that have that orange or light green shade to them, almost embracing this artificial color you wouldn't see anywhere else but is lightly reminiscent of nature
Wonderful. I was looking for a name or a term which refers to what I used to call the “2008 aesthetic”. I am so happy to know that it has a name. Thank you!
That iOS 6 Photo Booth icon got straight up murdered by iOS 7... Went from a cute little logo with a curtain and a little chair to a flat red and white abomination
Nice video, this kind of stuff is so interesting, maybe because we can all relate to it. Today I look at this artstyle with nostalgia, but I do feel like it has a huge "cheap" like aspect to it, mostly in tech. I don't know if I feel that way only today or if at the time I also did. I do hope the world become like this one day though, full of sun, optimism and water lol, i kinda associate it with another style called 'solar punk'
Strangely enough, I feel the opposite: flat minimalism feels "cheap" to me, while Frutiger Aero feels substantial and even slightly opulent. I'm guessing this is just because of the level of visual detail... Edit: And yes, solarpunk and Frutiger Aero have a lot of parallels, except solarpunk's eco-futurism often seems more realistic and genuine compared to F.A.'s performative greenwashing.
Really excited to watch this video! Ever since I watched your first Frutiger Aero video I’ve been a subscriber, and I’ve been looking for more videos that cover Frutiger Aero. Thanks for posting this! :)
Frutiger Aero is probably one of my favorite aesthetics out of nostalgia, though I do personally think the Y2K aesthetic looks better overall. Still overall wish we weren't stuck in the age of Corporate Memphis.
I feel like the algorithm throwing your first video on frutiger aero to people out is the reason this aesthetic has gone slightly viral - that’s very impressive!
I believe that the frutiger aero aesthetic and most of the early 2000s fashion is having a comeback. And it will compete or fuse with minimalism in this next decade.
I think the most basic principle of frutiger aero is the contrast and harmonization of nature and organic aesthetics with futuristic and technological ones. It always shows a blue sky and green grass mixed with a metal building or tech equipment. It’s a very utopic hopeful style that shows what people wanted from the future.
I loved this aestethic a lot! I wish it was still the norm. In our old house, we had a bucket in bathroom that was pictured with this aestethic. It had a beautiful scenery of a lake with swans. There were bubbles in the air with rainbow casts. I loved looking at that bucket, it made me feel lively and fresh. I wish I had a photo of it.
Very great VIdeo once again! I'm actually working on a frutiger aero inspired album right now so its great to get some more inspiration lol I feel like your first Video about this Aesthetic was the thing that kind revieved it. Good job! ^- ^
Here since 5k, excellent follow-up to the prior Frutiger Aero video. It was interesting to see that influence was even led from just technology, to architecture and such too.
Im glad theres people in this world who care about something so nieche and obscure, does anybody else feel joy when they see frutiger aero in old stores? My local walmart still has the old 2009-2017 pepsi and sprite machines with the whole nice frutiger ero look
The day made of glass reference dropped my jaw bro. I've been obsessed with that video since my age was single-digit. My enjoyment of frutiger aero is inseparably linked with 2000's corporate "future vision" youtube videos, there's 2 Corning vids that are both excellent as well as Nokia and Microsoft vids that envision a very similar world. To this day those videos instill an unmatched sense of optimism and nostalgia. I remember begging my dad for a windows phone at one point in time because I thought it was the coolest shit ever. For me, frutiger aero is synonymous with a utopian alternate global timeline that we diverged from in the 2000's, and the bittersweet understanding that we can never go back - it was never in our future to begin with. Like all other retro-futuristic imaginations, it was the consequence we wanted from our technology, not the consequence we got. Great vid, you're definitely CZcams's frutiguru.
About a month ago I had a dream filled with this aesthetic without knowing it’s a thing. And now, knowing it has a name I’m obsessed with it. Love the videos
I really love the frutiger aero aesthetic, It's so nostalgic. Growing up using those old computers, passing by a school that used the frutiger aero look while dad was driving us to a walmart that had that clean blue feel. I grew up around this aesthetic and it's kind of weird how I didn't even know it existed until a few months ago, but now that I know what this even was in the first place makes me feel a little better, especially since other people have noticed this old aesthetic.
I feel like the futuristic world in meet the Robinsons used this aesthetic, too! Also, it's so cool that this video showed me how many areas this aesthetic applied to!
Absolutely love your videos on the frutiger aero design aesthetic. It's one of those things I noticed (especially recently when looking back on it more recently) but it's such a charming aesthetic that is fascinating to learn about
my most favorite example of Frutiger Aero is displays they use in the early 2000s TVs in catalogs and periodicals in the newspapers, especially Best Buy or big box retails.
I'm so glad i found this channel. Never knew i would have a interest in this kind of of stuff but you definitely should do more videos like this :) (Also I'm glad you made another video about Frutiger aero i really enjoyed the last one and am happy their is more).
this was the video for me whenever I saw fruigter aero I always got this weird nostalgic feeling from my early child hood of seeing these certain design on things link dentist offices doctors offfices and just office comupter screens your channel has really helped me to take a deeper dive into this nostalgic strange fresh and comforting aesthetic❤ thanks keep it up
First of all, I like the cat in the intro. It's cute. But also I like the 'PowerPoint presentation' vibes your videos give. It oozes charming and cozy to me. Along with some witty humour, which I also love.

I think Little Big Planet was one of the best dives into frutiger aesthetic, the game has it own style and it remembers alot frutiger aero specially on lbp 3. It is incredible how this game can mix papercraft and frutiger aero design in just one

Thank you for the analysis! Frutiger Aero really is so fresh, clean, and optimistic. Eternally the future of tomorrow, today.

I have always associated the sims 2 and 3 music with the frutiger aero style, there's also a lot of music that released in the early 2010's that give me that nostalgic feeling with there uplifting sound, HIM's "scared to death" is a good example.
The game I associate most with Frutiger Aero is probably Portal (specifically Portal 1). It's just F.A the video game - look at the robots lol
Glad to see another video about the topic! Love your calm and articulated way of speaking, keep up the great work - hopefully you will gain many more subscribers in 2023 :)

Super interesting video! I'd say cars from the 2000s to early 10s definitely carry the Frutiger Aero aesthetic too, with their unique bubbly, round, and slightly cartoonish appearance. Cars from the late 10s-early 20s still retain aspects of the bubbly design but with a slightly "sleeker" look, and some sharper/more defined corners, edges, razor-thin lights etc (the Tesla look comes to mind the most)...
Ed's Auto Reviews called that era of car design "the jelly bean era".
When I passed my driving test I got a mazda lime green car because it had that vibe.
I loved that little car.
The PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii U perfectly represent the fructiger aero design.
I said it last time and I'll say it again, The Sims (2 and 3 in particular) really carry the aesthetic like almost nothing else.
Was about to comment that exactly! The music in those games is great too.
Agreed! Another good game that feels very fruitger aero is diversion! Search ‘diversion gameplay’ and it’ll appear!
I'm surprised nobody has brought up Portal, it's like the de facto FA game
TS2 kinda feels like Y2K
Holy cow.
Really good video, glad to see such classic designs are still being talked about
classic designs? more like, CLASSIC LIFE
jokes (no but fr it was our life in the past) aside, i also love how it’s being talked about still
I'm glad I found this channel and found out that I'm not the only one nostalgic for Skeuomorphism and Frutiger Aero
Yeaaaaah new banger
I love the fact this video is probably the sole reason we now know what fruitger aero is and have recognized the genere so well now
nickelodeon definitely employed frutiger aero in the '00s in their ads, logo, and shows, like victorious and icarly
I think another great example of Frutiger Aero music of the time was Owl City. Deer in The Headlights gives so much aero vibes.
Congratulations for 20k!

Amazing video! We can definitely feel your passion towards this topic. One thing I find insane about Frutiger Aero is simply the fact that no one even knows it existed. Like you said, it encompassed an entire generation and it's something I personally grew up with, yet we just don't realise it was ever there to begin with.
1:30 Holy shit, that is my speakers
Frutiger Aero is the type of aesthetic that's hopeful and lively, giving products and anything associated with it personality, unlike the corporate designs we have today, which are often dull and uninspired. I must admit I am a bit biased to frutiger aero simply because I partly grew up with the aesthetic, but I think it's very innovative, and draws connections to the real world in a way that seems fresh; frutiger aero is willing to be experimental, and shapes itself into many forms, while maintaining the core aspect of what makes it good in the first place. I found this channel through your first video, and I'm very happy to see you cover more about this design aesthetic. I also like the niche you're going for on this channel - design aesthetics, and small remarks on past products - and I hope to see this type of content thrive.
Glad to see return to Frutiger Aero!!! keep up the good work
I'm definitely sticking around to see more styles be talked about.
Thank you for this! These videos are so culturally significant because Frutiger Aero has influenced countless forms of design-both niche and broad-ranging. You do a great job of inspecting it as the ubiquitous influence that it was!
Congratulations for reaching 20k subscribers, I hope more people get to know your channel! I loved this video, it's cool to learn more about the aesthetic, subcategories, and the various uses during everyday life!
The only thing you forgot to talk about was Technozen, which was very popular during the same time as Frutiger Aero and it shares many similarities with the latter. Its philosophy focus on the use of technology as a supplementary addition to everyday life instead of a predominant part of it, and, compared to Aero, it's more minimalistic and Asian-focused instead. The best exemple of the aesthetic would be the Wii and Nintendo DS, as well as the "Wii" series of games and their OSTs.
Other than that, this is a amazing extension of your first video about Frutiger Aero, and it's already one of my favorites from your channel! :D
0:11 Also, nice to see the image I made in this video! :)
Edit: It would be really cool if you made a video about the (true) Y2K aesthetic, it's one of my favorites as well!
Frutiger Aero about to make a comeback, mark my words.
Amazing video, dude! Glad to see there’s a CZcamsr who talks about these old design aesthetics that I’ve loved for a long time!
i didn't realize that the colors you mentioned also fall within the frutiger umbrella, and it's interesting since I also feel this sense of optimism seeing plastic chairs that have that orange or light green shade to them, almost embracing this artificial color you wouldn't see anywhere else but is lightly reminiscent of nature
I always associated those colors with classroom furniture/carpeting, playground equipment, and crash-pads used in children's gymnastics clubs.
This is fantastic! I got so much nostalgia from watching this - keep it up!
for some reason this gives me so much calm...it feels like I'm watching CZcams in 2010... and everything is alright
Wonderful. I was looking for a name or a term which refers to what I used to call the “2008 aesthetic”. I am so happy to know that it has a name. Thank you!
I literally discovered your channel just yesterday from the first Frutiger Aero video, crazy to see it come up again the day after!
That iOS 6 Photo Booth icon got straight up murdered by iOS 7...
Went from a cute little logo with a curtain and a little chair to a flat red and white abomination
The "windows XP welcome music" also has frutiger aero vibes, even it's composed in 1996
Nice video, this kind of stuff is so interesting, maybe because we can all relate to it. Today I look at this artstyle with nostalgia, but I do feel like it has a huge "cheap" like aspect to it, mostly in tech. I don't know if I feel that way only today or if at the time I also did. I do hope the world become like this one day though, full of sun, optimism and water lol, i kinda associate it with another style called 'solar punk'
Strangely enough, I feel the opposite: flat minimalism feels "cheap" to me, while Frutiger Aero feels substantial and even slightly opulent. I'm guessing this is just because of the level of visual detail...
Edit: And yes, solarpunk and Frutiger Aero have a lot of parallels, except solarpunk's eco-futurism often seems more realistic and genuine compared to F.A.'s performative greenwashing.
Man, all these videos are making me yearn for the 2010s again
Really excited to watch this video! Ever since I watched your first Frutiger Aero video I’ve been a subscriber, and I’ve been looking for more videos that cover Frutiger Aero. Thanks for posting this! :)
Mind making a video about the Y2K aesthetic?
Frutiger Aero is probably one of my favorite aesthetics out of nostalgia, though I do personally think the Y2K aesthetic looks better overall. Still overall wish we weren't stuck in the age of Corporate Memphis.
You did it, you filled the last hole in the CZcams content wall, "the design talking CZcamsr", i was waiting for this for so long
Look at that transparent and glossy mini windows media player at 2:46. My heart can't take it anymore.
The music around 4:30 ish is like every corporate training course I've ever had to take. Well done. :)
THE NOSTALGIA OF THIS AESTETIC 😭
I feel like the algorithm throwing your first video on frutiger aero to people out is the reason this aesthetic has gone slightly viral - that’s very impressive!
i think this will be remembered as the general vibe of ‘00s society
i hope this video blows up frutiger aero was a big part of my life
Maybe I'm just going through a tough time right now but seeing this made me tear up. I long so much for simpler times.
I believe that the frutiger aero aesthetic and most of the early 2000s fashion is having a comeback. And it will compete or fuse with minimalism in this next decade.
I always like your videos because you talk about things that not many people talk especcialy with quality.
awe man this is so bittersweet.
we were so optimistic back then! 😭💙💚
I think the most basic principle of frutiger aero is the contrast and harmonization of nature and organic aesthetics with futuristic and technological ones. It always shows a blue sky and green grass mixed with a metal building or tech equipment. It’s a very utopic hopeful style that shows what people wanted from the future.
My brother and I have always loved this aesthetic such an amazing era to grow up in
I loved this aestethic a lot! I wish it was still the norm. In our old house, we had a bucket in bathroom that was pictured with this aestethic. It had a beautiful scenery of a lake with swans. There were bubbles in the air with rainbow casts. I loved looking at that bucket, it made me feel lively and fresh. I wish I had a photo of it.
Very great VIdeo once again!
I'm actually working on a frutiger aero inspired album right now so its great to get some more inspiration lol
I feel like your first Video about this Aesthetic was the thing that kind revieved it. Good job! ^- ^
Oh my god, are you really working out on a Frutiger Aero album? That's so cool! i will follow you for that
@@ivlis3486 OMG really? Thank you ^- ^
But please don't expect too much this is completely new territorry for my after all xd
Here since 5k, excellent follow-up to the prior Frutiger Aero video. It was interesting to see that influence was even led from just technology, to architecture and such too.
Im glad theres people in this world who care about something so nieche and obscure, does anybody else feel joy when they see frutiger aero in old stores? My local walmart still has the old 2009-2017 pepsi and sprite machines with the whole nice frutiger ero look
The day made of glass reference dropped my jaw bro. I've been obsessed with that video since my age was single-digit. My enjoyment of frutiger aero is inseparably linked with 2000's corporate "future vision" youtube videos, there's 2 Corning vids that are both excellent as well as Nokia and Microsoft vids that envision a very similar world. To this day those videos instill an unmatched sense of optimism and nostalgia. I remember begging my dad for a windows phone at one point in time because I thought it was the coolest shit ever. For me, frutiger aero is synonymous with a utopian alternate global timeline that we diverged from in the 2000's, and the bittersweet understanding that we can never go back - it was never in our future to begin with. Like all other retro-futuristic imaginations, it was the consequence we wanted from our technology, not the consequence we got. Great vid, you're definitely CZcams's frutiguru.
Very well-said
About a month ago I had a dream filled with this aesthetic without knowing it’s a thing. And now, knowing it has a name I’m obsessed with it. Love the videos
I miss this so much, big thing from my childhood that i hold close to my heart.
I really love the frutiger aero aesthetic, It's so nostalgic. Growing up using those old computers, passing by a school that used the frutiger aero look while dad was driving us to a walmart that had that clean blue feel. I grew up around this aesthetic and it's kind of weird how I didn't even know it existed until a few months ago, but now that I know what this even was in the first place makes me feel a little better, especially since other people have noticed this old aesthetic.
babe wake up, it's new upload from Undefined
4:01 this frame showed up and my mind instantly thought about og persona 4
Truly the frutiger aero is a thing
i love this channel because how in depth we go into Vrutiger Aero
the intro transitions so smoothly into the actual video you cant even notice. nice work
I feel like the futuristic world in meet the Robinsons used this aesthetic, too! Also, it's so cool that this video showed me how many areas this aesthetic applied to!
Absolutely love your videos on the frutiger aero design aesthetic. It's one of those things I noticed (especially recently when looking back on it more recently) but it's such a charming aesthetic that is fascinating to learn about
I love how furtiger aero aesthetics are so familiar and comfortable that I didn’t even notice the song in the background until you pointed it out lol
my most favorite example of Frutiger Aero is displays they use in the early 2000s TVs in catalogs and periodicals in the newspapers, especially Best Buy or big box retails.
Trillwave is an aesthetic that uses Frutiger Aero sometimes depending on the niche and is the internet "wave" genre that popularized it to the youth
You are the channel that does all the nostalgia thx it’s so cool
I love frutiger aero so much it's unreal
I came to this video only to hear that smooth voice of yours saying Frutiger Aero.
deblob was such a good example of Frutiger Aero! It definitely makes me think exactly of that era.
I need more of these videos. I know it takes time but this channel is a gold mine and I can't get enough of it!
This channel keeps me going, these videos are just so relaxing and peaceful
This videos bring me a feeling of hope
I'm so glad i found this channel. Never knew i would have a interest in this kind of of stuff but you definitely should do more videos like this :) (Also I'm glad you made another video about Frutiger aero i really enjoyed the last one and am happy their is more).
Absolutely love your content. Keep up the great work!
this was the video for me whenever I saw fruigter aero I always got this weird nostalgic feeling from my early child hood of seeing these certain design on things link dentist offices doctors offfices and just office comupter screens your channel has really helped me to take a deeper dive into this nostalgic strange fresh and comforting aesthetic❤
thanks keep it up
First of all, I like the cat in the intro. It's cute.
But also I like the 'PowerPoint presentation' vibes your videos give. It oozes charming and cozy to me. Along with some witty humour, which I also love.
This channel calms me down completely and i love it. Thanks for helping me get through college
Your channel is great! I've always looked for someone who explains and defines graphic design and is evolution in later years!
