“FF Blur is from FontFont’s earliest period, made in 1991 by British designer Neville Brody. The typeface was developed by blurring a grayscale image of an existing grotesque [Akzidenz-Grotesk] and then vectorizing what remained. Though deceptively simple, his process was imitated widely afterward, with mediocre results. Notwithstanding the knock-offs, FF Blur entered the zeitgeist of early and mid-1990s design, and has remained visible to date. In 2011, the Museum of Modern Art in New York added a selection of digital typefaces to its permanent collection. FF Blur was one of just 23 designs to make the cut.” [FontShop]
