Frutiger Aero is an aesthetic defined by heavy usage of gradients, bright colors, and skeuomorphism. It is commonly associated with Windows Vista/7, the first iPhone, and XBOX LIVE on the XBOX 360.
Frutiger is beloved by plenty of soyboys, and included in the Biblically Accurate Angels copypasta. Since it's associated with the mid-to-late 2000's, there is a nostalgia element to these feelings.
Skeuomorphism is a design choice that tries to imitate objects that function simillarly. Examples of this include many of Fruity Loops' add-ons, which mimick stereo knobs, buttons, switches, etc. It is similar to how trannies imitate real women.
Usage On The Sharty
On April Fools 2024, ROOT and his team changed the theme to Frutiger Aero, and added /aero/. This came with a Clippy-clone Wholesome Gapejak, and a set of 2000's internet style wordfilters.
Why Soyboys Love It
Frutiger Aero is a common subject of video essays, which notoriously obsess over a singular, trivial topic, and over-detail everything. This is similar to the capitalism and walkable cities video documentaries. Not to mention that it's a corporate aesthetic, and soyboys always dickride corporations and love to consoom despite claiming to hate capitalism. It also fits into nostalgia baiting like oldtroon larping boards.
Snopes certified best aesthetic of all time and they make gemmy /calm/erald 'usic to go along with it.
Example of a heckin nostalgic liminal nature-themed sleek corporate vaporwave playlist that's reminisces about how magical childhood was in le 2000s, featuring the world we were promised and never got finally delivered by some of my favorite troon artists like vektroid, internet club, and mindspring memories
