Neil Yes, 2 related families often work better than one. I personally think that Otl Aicher's identity for the Munich Olympic Games, based on geometrical proportions, vibrant colours, and Univers (!) takes an awful lot of beating. Boring, sterile, it ain't. The typeface, with its calmness, exactly counterpoints the other elements. <http://www.1972municholympics.co.uk/index.php> But I know we're not living in 1972! Paul
