B612 is the result of a research project initiated by Airbus. The font
|
||
was designed by Nicolas Chauveau and Thomas Paillot (intactile DESIGN) with the
|
||
support of Jean‑Luc Vinot (ENAC). Prior research by Jean‑Luc Vinot (DGAC/DSNA)
|
||
and Sylvie Athènes (Université de Toulouse III). The challenge for the
|
||
"Aeronautical Font" was to improve the display of information on the cockpit
|
||
screens, in particular in terms of legibility and comfort of reading, and to
|
||
optimize the overall homogeneity of the cockpit.
|
||
|
||
Intactile DESIGN was hired to work on the design of eight typographic
|
||
variants of the font. This one, baptized B612 in reference to the
|
||
imaginary asteroid of the aviator Saint‑Exupéry, benefited from a complete
|
||
hinting on all the characters.
