so happy i got to grow up seeing this style a lot as a kid. it makes me feel so happy and nostalgic

[@JG1universe]

Same but I was born in the late 2010s so I didn’t get to see it for long but it sorta lasted until 2016 last time I saw it I was in pre-k I honestly couldn’t remember the name glad it’s popular again

People tends to hate Windows Vista. But it gives me SO MUCH NOSTALGIA.

[@belstar1128]

Windows Vista was bad but i miss the things i was doing on windows vista but it would have been even better with xp or 7

[@andrewsgamingvids]

Same even tho I never used it lol

[@macksnotcool]

The Frutiger font isn't actually used in most Frutiger aero imagery. It's called Frutiger Aero because Adrian Frutiger essentially invented "humanist" typefaces. Humanism is a big part of Frutiger Aero. A humanist typeface is a typeface (typically called a font, but I believe that terminology is technically incorrect) that involves including simple purposeful mistakes that a human would when writing something with a pen. Rather, most Frutiger Aero aesthetic imagery with text uses Microsoft's Segoi UI typeface which is very very very similar to Frutiger's typeface design.

This was the future we were promised...

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

Someone please invent a time machine already so we can go back 😭

"This was the future we were promised..." Dumb meme. We were never promised this future. But we should have been.

[@OmegaCorsair]

One of the Most Visually Appealing Aesthetics.

[@sequoia5934]

THIS STYLE BASICALLY WHEN PPL DIDNT MINIMALISE EVERYTHING AND MAKE IT LOOK SO SIMPLE N BORING

[@catakuri6678]

They feel like something you would see in dreams

[@samchorostecki6275]

My first memories of frutiger aero were at my preschool around 2006-07. Looking back now I remember a lot of this aesthetic being there, it just felt like the whole world in general looked like frutiger aero when I was 4. All the computers ran on windows XP and sometimes vista, they had the soap bottles with the fish in them and everything. But my most fond memories of it oddly enough were during recess. The preschool was on a university campus that my mom worked at so there were lots of places they would take us to play, mostly in these huge fields. As a kid it literally felt like I was in one of those desktop pictures. Especially on days that it was warm and we would have “water day” which I remember calling it, where they’d get out sprinklers and water toys for us to play with. I’ve since driven past my old preschool and saw the fields, and it was nostalgic but nothing can compare to those memories since everything looked so big and bright as a kid. It’s just cool how an aesthetic can shape how you see the world as a kid especially if it’s the first one you remember / are exposed to.

I was born right before the death of Frutiger aero and I saw its gradual transition from glossy skeuomorphic designs to flat everything. I remember my iPad had the old iOS 5 or something wallpaper with the grass and the dew droplets. I can still picture that wallpaper so clearly. I yearn to find it one day again. I was in China for the first half of my life and my god did Shanghai have so many Frutiger themes. There was a park that I would go to and during the summer everything that had chlorophyll would turn bright green and, contrasted with the blue sky and the white paths, made everything look like a picturesque idealistic wallpaper. What would l give to relieve it again

[@chilastica]

Nice video. Frutiger Aero tickles something in my brain. I wonder what younger kids of this generation will look back on as their aesthetic... Maybe a video on that?

[@JibplayzYT]

Grew up in 2009 but experienced these. Love them so much

[@MiniMight]

man i miss windows 7

[@AMGAMGAMG1]

Future they promised but never gave

[@RabbitConfirmed]

the future we need, not deserve

[@tordoge]

You are an excellent KZbinr. Your production value and intelligent presentation is distinct and conveys information in an easily digestible, entertaining manner. You’re absolutely going to excel in audience, it’s only a matter of time. Well done, excited to see your future works.

[@sankobyte]

Aww thank you so much!!! I'm glad that you enjoy the content! :)

[@user-vacgod2739]

I remember this style very fondly.

[@foxbuns]

i came here from Maybe: Salem's channel who recommended this video :>

[@sankobyte]

Aww yeah! :)

[@ToeTag9899]

Frutiger Aero is nice it makes me think of one of my favorite games of all time Mirror's Edge.

[@AAYMMN]

I miss being a kid

[@cosygracegames]

I’ve never heard of frutiger aero this is so interesting! I came from a Wii music playlist

[@CoolDudeClem]

I don't find it nostalgic, but I do find it beutifull.

[@backhdlp]

Aero design was literally peak Windows

[@lazersword]

even though i didn't grow up with the asthetic, it's still very nostalgic.

[@Instantone]

Whats the music from 6:05 to the end? Sounds a bit like Lease, but I know thats not it. Also great video! It’s also good to mention that the rise of Frutiger Aero can also be because of the rise, and distaste for the corporate styles we see today, and see everywhere.

[@Big-Chungus21]

I think frutiger aero sort of ended partway through Windows 10. I definitely think the original Windows 10 wallpaper fits into Frutiger Aero, and the Metro UI design originally evolved from aero. I preferred when it was more colourful than grey though, like in Windows 8. Windows 11 has become slightly more humanistic, but not much. Still feels very corporate and similar to the style of Apple operating systems like MacOS and IOS in a way i dont personally like too much

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

It ended with Windows 7 (the best operating system), with windows 8 they gave us those opaque squares and ugly flat design that dominates now. Many people including me were mad they removed the skeuomorphic design and transparent glass effect

[@Big-Chungus21]

@@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess They never removed Skeuomorphic design, thats a word that has been massively misinterpreted due to things like the aesthetic wiki. A skeuomorph is anything that conveys purpose through resembling a concept or object someone already is aware of. For example, the IOS phone icon is a skeuomorph, because it looks like the speaker of an old rotary phone. Its equally skeuomorphic, because it uses an equal amount of skeuomorphs - this has always been the case. Skeuomorphic is more of a quality when it comes to applications of built in ones rather than ones the user installs themselves. For example, Safari has always used a skeuomorph of a compass, in order to relate the action of browsing (or exploring) the web to a navigational tool. It shows that Safaris job is to help navigate the web. Even if safaris icon is less detailed, it is still a compass and therefore a skeumorph, and equally skeuomorphic. Something cannot be more or less skeuomorphic, it can only be or not be a skeuomorph. Chrome has never used a skeuomorphic icon. It used to have a realistic chrome multicoloured ball, which while realistic isnt skeuomorphic. That chrome ball doesnt relate to the purpose of Chrome at all, it doesnt tell you what it actually does.

Happy easter! How have you’ve been?

[@10290sstp]

It is the promise we never fulfilled

[@charmyzard]

4:04 "Mhh! The pirate ship." > One of Columbus' 3 ships. ???

[@Sofasit1806]

Windows longhorn wasn't forgotten os, it was a codename for windows vista development

[@ConnorThermo]

As a kid I saw this aesthetic rise and dominate. Initially it felt cool, shiny, and futuristic; but I really grew sick of it around 2008/9 😂

[@bomberfish77]

Why did I use to have the exact same agendas????? Not even kidding it looks the exact same with the little transparent part up top

[@endcaps1917]

I was born in this era molded by it And I miss it so damn much

[@zuntata7860]

i'll sub just incase you make deep dive into millenium Y2K aesthetic

[@solmateusbraga]

early 2000s sounds like 2000 upto 2500

[@KibyAnderson]

HAPPY EGG DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@sankobyte]

🎉

[@fabimawn]

I will never understand why later OSses of any device moved to the most boring uninspiring style you could possibly imagine

[@theactualtsl]

complacency and monopoly

[@VJFranzK]

It looks nice! but seems too early to be nostalgic for a style that has never quite left usage?

[@chaotic.taco14]

this guy is like matpat's italian brother

[@GabeZambrano]

I thought it was pronounced “frutijer” aero instead of “frutiger”

[@orzeleo]

where we lost? where we forget about calm and all that shit. Why
