Study Task 1 - Type Comparison - Help Link


comparing type

As groups of five, once we had researched are company 'Help Link’, we then had to choose two fonts from the list of these typefaces that we think would work for the brand we had to re-brand:

•   Helvetica 
•   Bondoni
•   Garamond 
•   Centuary Expanded 
•   Futura
•   Time Roman 193

Then had to compare them and decide which font would work best for the logo design.

As a group we decided that we would use and compare Helvetica and Futura, as they are modern and simplistic.
The two fonts are quite similar to each other but they do have some differences. Such as the letters that are dotted as J and I, the dots circular in the Futura font but square in the Helvetica font. The upper case G has no tail in Futura but does in Helvetica and the tail of the upper case R in Futura is straight but curved in Helvetica. Also Helvetica is a slightly thinner font than Futura
