Lonely Hearts - Wanted!
" I am an uppercase B in helvetica light, I'm sleek, sexy and
curvy in all the right places. Im looking for an outgoing serif
that will show me a good time. I like long walks on the beach
and eating in modern restaurants.
Contact: Easy to find."
According to Helvetica's Lonely heart ad, which typeface is best suited?
" I am Gill Sans! I am a curvy, sleek, geometric letter. I am
possibly looking for a sans serif letter but a serif would be fine!
Im also looking for a lucky letter who doesn't mind my one ear.
You'll find me on the TV I work for the BBC."
" I am Franklin - Bold but suitable and unique with quirks.
I am looking for a serif typeface - Light weight and uppercase,
who likes trips to the opera and expensive dinners."
Both of these typefaces have things in common with Helvetica's
ad for example Franklin likes expensive dinners out and well Gill
sans wasn't overall picky!
What if these typefaces had a baby!?
Hybrid Letter, kept the sleekness of
helvetica, the ear of gill sans G, and
the boldness of Franklin.
