As well as all the things I love about B&O, the thing I also adore is the B&O font. Where can one find the font and if need be buy it for a Mac?

Searching the old postings and the web, it's apparently calle BeoFrutiger or an adapted Helvetica but i cant find it on the web anywhere.

If anybody knows where to locate or buy it, let me know.

The primary font we currently use (website, videos, other promotional materials, Bang & Olufsen app) is called Gotham and it is commercially available.

Hi,

here https://www.curious.space/case-studies/bang-olufsen-beotime you can read that "Danish design house Pleks developed a unique custom typeface for B&O called Beofont. It’s a large family consisting of 3 weights - light, regular, bold - and covers over 72 different languages."

Would that help?

I do have Beofrutiger - but this is the old B&O font and is just a modified Helvetica. Just download the file and open it in word and save the document. Then use and resave as something else when you want to use it.
