In the theoretical part of this study, typography and Swiss design will be analyzed. In fact, typography is an important feature of Swiss design, so it’s important to understand its roots and basic concepts. Swiss design developed in the 1950s, it is known by technical approach, the use of grid, equal stroke thickness and the sans-serif typography, which makes it known by the synonym International typographic style. In that period, some of the most famous fonts were created, Univers and Helvetica. Considering that minimalism and style functionalism can be noticed today, in all spheres of graphic design, the aim of research is to explain the frequency of using sans-serif typography through examples of music posters, or frequency of using Helvetica font. Also, the aim is to show the adaptation of Swiss design to present, as well as new typefaces that will be shown with poster series. Even though the sans-serif typography from new era is used for posters, it is compared to a poster which is made with original Helvetica font, to give a clear idea of the differences, virtues and flaws between the two typefaces. The principles set by Swiss style designers are inspiration for designers nowadays and encourage the development of new typographic solutions and minimalist design.
