Frutiger Metro
Frutiger Aero’s after-dark city sibling — glossy vector swirls, stars, butterflies and bold pink-on-black graphics from the mid-2000s, made to wear.
What is Frutiger Metro?
Frutiger Metro is the urban, nightlife-flavored sibling of Frutiger Aero, drawn from mid-2000s to early-2010s design. Instead of water and nature, it features city life and vector graphics: swirls, stars, splatters, butterflies and silhouettes in bold pinks, blacks and neons, with the same glossy, optimistic finish.
When the future moved downtown
Frutiger Metro is the urban, nightlife side of the mid-2000s gloss — vector swooshes, stars, splatters, butterflies and silhouettes in bold pinks, blacks and neons, like an old MP3-player ad or a club flyer. Where Aero went to the beach, Metro went out. We print that glossy city energy onto pieces you can actually wear.

Frutiger Metro FAQ
What is the difference between Frutiger Aero and Frutiger Metro?
Both come from the same glossy, optimistic mid-2000s design era. Frutiger Aero focuses on nature and technology: water, sky, fish and greenery in blues and greens. Frutiger Metro moves to the city and nightlife, with vector swirls, stars, silhouettes and bolder pink, black and neon colors.
What motifs are typical for Frutiger Metro?
Vector swooshes and swirls, stars, paint splatters, butterflies, music and dance silhouettes, city skylines and polka dots, usually with a glossy or gradient finish. Think of mid-2000s MP3-player ads, club flyers and phone wallpapers.
How do I style Frutiger Metro?
Pair a pink-and-black or neon vector graphic piece with black jeans or a simple skirt, then add one shiny accessory like a glossy bag or metallic sneakers. It works well mixed with Y2K and scene pieces.
