Neville Brody’s Blur font has been chosen to be admitted to the Museum of Modern Art’s (MoMA) architecture and design collection. Blur was selected alongside 22 other digital typefaces which included Carter’s Verdana, Speikermann’s FF Meta, Pool’s FF Din, Frere-Jones and Hoefler’s Retina, Crouwel’s New Alphabet and Barnbrook’s Manson fonts too.

In its official gallery label MoMA writes “The letterforms of FF Blur—fuzzy around the edges like an out-of-focus photograph—seem to celebrate their own imperfection, speaking to his unique background. FF Blur resembles type that has been reproduced cheaply on a Xerox machine—degenerated through copying and recopying.” You can find out more about MoMa (New York) or search their collection here
