luke, It isn't quite as simple as just tossing the names of a couple of typefaces at you. Anyone who does is not thinking this through with you. Not only does the second font have to look good with Bauhaus, it has to work well for all anticipated uses and be suitable as part of the company's ID program and personality. So, here are a few questions that immediately come to mind to get us started... Is this font going to be a part of your mark? Or used separately, such as a font for text? What weight(s) of Bauhaus? Size relationship of this font to Bauhaus? Is there a graphic associated with this mark? Are you using all caps, ulc, or? What kind of business is this? What uses, media, and range of sizes do you anticipate for this mark? Color and/or black-and-white? What is the company persona? Neil
