Five Alternatives for Helvetica Love/Haters
A few months ago I became increasingly frustrated by over reliance on Helvetica. We’ve all been there I’m sure, too many projects, time running out, just reach for Helvetica and add water, voila instant graphic design! There is an inherent problem with the font, it’s just too good. I mean there isn’t many instances I can think of were its use would look inappropriate.
For my own sanity and to broaden my horizons I made it my business to search out the five most practical alternatives to Helvetica. These examples are purely my opinion and in no way am I saying that they are as good as or as versatile as the legendary Helvetica.
