  • AVENIR Family
    An Introduction To The AVENIR Family By Stacey Chen O V E R V I E W l Avenir was designed by Adrian Frutiger. l The typeface was first released in 1988 with three weights, before being expanded to six weights. l In 2004, together with Akira Kobayashi, Frutiger reworked the Avenir family. l Avenir has now become a common font in web, print, and graphic design, etc. l Frutiger was born in Unterseen, Switzerland 1928. l At age 16, Frutiger was apprenticed as a compositor to a printer, while taking classes in woodcuts and drawing. l With his second wife, Frutiger had two daughters, who both experienced mental health problems and committed suicide as adolescents. l Frutiger spent most of his professional career working in Paris and living in France, returning to Switzerland later in life. A D R I A N F R U T I G E R l Charles Peignot of Deberny Et Peignot recruited Frutiger based on the quality of the wood- engraved illustrations of his essay. l Impressed by the success of Futura typeface, Peignot encouraged a new, geometric sans-serif type in competition. l Frutiger disliked the regimentation of Futura, and persuaded Peignot that the new sans-serif be based on the realist model. l In 1988, Frutiger completed the family Avenir. Frutiger intended the font to be a more human version of geometric sans-serif types popular in the 1930s, such as Erbar and Futura. A D R I A N F R U T I G E R “Avenir” = “Future” French English A V E N I R i s l Futura is a geometric sans-serif typeface designed in 1927 by Paul Renner.

  • Allocative and Implementation Efficiency in HIV Prevention and Treatment for People Who Inject Drugs
    Allocative and implementation efficiency in HIV prevention and treatment for people who inject drugs UNODC Science Addressing Drugs and HIV: State of the Art Scientific Consensus for High Level Segment of the 59th session of the Commission on Narcotic Drugs Authors: David Wilson World Bank, Washington, DC, USA Clemens Benedikt World Bank, Washington, DC, USA David P. Wilson Burnet Institute, Melbourne, Australia Sherrie L. Kelly Burnet Institute, Melbourne, Australia Abstract: Background: Estimated global new HIV infections among people who inject drugs (PWID) declined by approximately 10% from 110,000 in 2010 to 98,000 in 2013. To achieve the 2020 UNAIDS target of reducing adult HIV infections by 75% compared to 2010, accelerated action in scaling up HIV programs for PWID is required. In a context of diminishing external support to HIV programs in countries where most HIV-affected PWID live, it is essential that available resources are allocated and used as efficiently as possible. Methods: Allocative and implementation efficiency analysis methods were applied. Optima, a dynamic, population-based HIV model with an integrated program and economic analysis framework was applied in eight countries in Eastern Europe and Central Asia (EECA). Mathematical analyses established optimized allocations of resources. An implementation efficiency analysis focused on examining technical efficiency, unit costs, and heterogeneity of service delivery models and practices. Results: Findings from the latest reported data revealed that countries allocated between 4% (Bulgaria) and 40% (Georgia) of total HIV resources to programs targeting PWID – with a median of 13% for the eight countries. When distributed optimally, between 9% and 25% of all HIV resources are allocated to PWID programs with a median allocation of 16%.

  • Avenir, the Future for Amsterdam
    Avenir, the future for Amsterdam By Henk Gianotten, August 07th 2003, In recent decades the capital of the Netherlands has experienced both, rapid growth and the decentralization of its local government and all in a period when the expectations of its citizens and visitors were becoming more varied and demanding. With all these changes the city council and its allied services felt an increasing need for a unifying visual identity that would be inextricably bound to the culture of their organization. An identity flexible enough to represent the diverse services within the municipality, yet links each of these with the larger whole. This unifying style also needed to make a confident visual statement for use on printed material, packaging, clothing, website, and a fleet of city-owned vehicles. Certainly the search for this new and clearly defined “face” would be an almost impossible task to present to designers. Deciding on a new “visual identity” for non-profit and government organizations, then developing and maintaining it is an extremely difficult process, that is largely dependent on the components that make up the total identity. It is far easier to create a unified appearance for two hundred shoe stores than it is to create a visual style that links tens of distinctly different departments and services of one local authority. To fully appreciate the complexity of this image-change it is necessary to look at the history of Amsterdam. It has always been a very liberal city, and its municipal services, like its citizens, have evolved within a system long accustomed to a great diversity of opinionated “faces”.

  • Use One Typeface
    01 Flush Left When in doubt, set your type flush left rag right. Why? In western culture, people read from top to bottom, left to right. By justifying type left, the eye is able to find the edge and read copy much more easily. Avoid indenting the first line of a paragraph for this reason. Everything I learned in design school in 10 simple rules to help you start designing like a rock star. @theChrisDo www.TheFutur.com 02 Use One Typeface Using two typefaces successfully within a layout requires an understanding of the chosen faces in order to be confident that they are complementary. In general, avoid using two typefaces of the same classification. For example, do not use two sans serif, serif, slab serif or script faces together. The reason—contrast. Stay with one typeface until you have achieved mastery. Helvetica Neue Everything I learned in design school in 10 simple rules to help you start designing like a rock star. @theChrisDo www.TheFutur.com 03 Skip A Weight Go from light to bold, or from medium to extra bold when changing font weights. The key to great design is contrast. Slight changes in weight change make it harder for the audience to notice the difference. Try mixing bold for the headline and light for the body copy for greater contrast. Light/Bold Everything I learned in design school in 10 simple rules to help you start designing like a rock star. @theChrisDo www.TheFutur.com 04 Double Point Size A good rule of thumb when changing point sizes, is to double or half the point size you are using.
