Discussion Probably the closest thing to FrutigerAero I have ever seen personally
The place is in Düsseldorf, Germany.
As soon as I saw the building and its surroundings, I felt like I was in a Frutiger Aero world. It might not have all the necessary Frutiger Aero features, but I was happy because it was probably the closest thing to Frutiger Aero that I had seen. It was awesome. Btw, I erased the people in the pictures. Maybe I can edit the pictures by adding more clouds and strong sunlight. Of course, there should be some waves and fresh fruit around.
What do you think, guys? Do the pictures have potential for editing? Should I give them some Frutiger Aero vibes?

I recognize that building immediately! It’s in one of the Windows 7 Default theme’s wallpaper pack.

THAT'S WHY I WAS SO CONFUSED WHEN I SAW THAT BUILDING. I knew I had seen it before but didn't remember WHERE! I had to stand still and think about why it seemed so familiar to me.... Damn, it was one of the windows 7 defaults the whole time and I DIDN'T RECOGNIZE IT 😞 lol

For me it came back instantly! I used to LOVE messing around with themes. Matter of fact, I still do! I made some sick themes here and there for Windows 10. 🙏

This area looks quite retro futuristic to me. It touches a chord in my autistic brain!

It’s right off Schadowstraße, our big central shopping area. The white building is the Schauspielhaus, the silver one is the Dreischeibenhaus, a famous building for its then-futuristic architecture and being the former ThyssenKrupp HQ
