Frutiger aero is too bright and overbearing.Modern design too flat and dull, and honestly is depressing if anything.late 90s early 2000s aesthetic though... THIS is perfect.Shiny and fun and detailed, but not too maximalist to the point you wanna lobotomize yourself.
you're right, I associate frutiger aero with cheap garbage like windows 7 and vista. the more futuristic style of the early 00's can be gaudy sometimes but i find it a lot less stupid looking
>>107638265Pretty much...And there have even been cheap salesmen of frutiger aero products as well...It's a shame most of the lot of my generation want Aero back and not the other stuff like oldweb, metalheart/trendwhore, and general Y2K aesthetics that aren't just cheap windoze crap and glassy garbage.

>>107638467>https://cy-x.net/t/digital-cargo-cult-how-zoomers-ruined-old-internet/91I am partially to blame...But unlike them, I didn't care too much about aesthetics... the only Aesthetic I gave a fuck about was vaporwave.I wanted the actual old internet back because I missed the freedom, fun and exploration it provided.The rest of my generation ruined it by slowly becoming deluded and dumb.
>>107638265>>107638232it was never called this before and whoever fruitnigger is, theyre trying to rewrite history
>>107638790What should the shinier graphic design trends of the 2000's be called instead?
>>107638868The same thing it was called when it was first introduced
>>107639037cool?Futuristic?late 90s/early 2000s futurism (for past tense)?

>>107638232The specific design language of "Aero" as used by Microsoft by the time is neat. And of course, so was the sleek, chrome, futuristic look found in certain games and anime from earlier in the early and mid 2000s. But zoomers ruined both. There was no "Frutiger" or any of that shit.
