ironic sans
Ironic Sans from David Friedman VIA
18 out of 20 isn’t too bad… The two I chose incorrectly were both in all caps, the Mattel logo and the Toyota logo, so I’ll have work on those capital letters, throw in an R, C an S or the like & the difference slaps you in the face so hard it would be impossible to mix them up.
I’m a Helvetic fan, there are so many elements that present so much more pleasingly to the eye compared to Arial, although that doesn’t mean I don’t ever use Arial. They both have their uses… I guess ;)
The Typographic Desk Reference by Theodore Rosendorf
One of my favourite typography reference books is the The Typographic Desk Reference by Theodore Rosendorf, possibly more because of the way it looks rather than being anything more comprehensive than other manuals. The sections are presented clearly and attractively, I’m happy that I own it, and I’m just now remembering that either I have spoken about this book before, or I meant to and never got around to it…
Oh! and I didn’t use any references when playing this quiz :) Play now!
