silly me... I'm talking about the 'superco' type. cheers.
- Amicus0
anyone? I realise there are heaps of fonts in this vain, but maybe too many of the characters are customised.
- Josev0
I think this is a combination of fonts with some customization. The s, c (customized), and o look like they may be Gotham. The others are some bauhaus looking font. Maybe the p and r are hand made, theyre kind of odd proportionally.

I was going to suggest Bayer (p) until I took a better look at it...
I don't this it is Gotham
- Amicus0
i don't think gotham either.... I think the c is just cut to fit the o and the p's descender is probably shortened. I can't find a similar r either.
any ideas on a font that might sit well with this in a super minimal identity. I'm thinking of flat colours, not too bright, and clean typography.
- the p is clearly not gotham. The s looks like gotham.Josev

Damn... I have that one, did the overlay, and they don't quite match.
I also noticed that there are at least twice as many points used in Tierra than needed, which is very annoying.
thanks for your help acescence

it's a custom logotype
don't think hard it's a typeface
i recommend neviile brody's ff typeface and insignia

I'm thinking the U is a tad thin?Amicus

OK...
So, I'm just updating this logo, and I want a typeface that will sit well with it.
There are two things I'm considering:
1. should it complement (eg. similar ideas in terms of geometry etc.) or
2. should it contrast (logo is a standalone)
Any ideas?

complement it with any "chalet 1970" font

the s looks like gotham to me... i'd run it all in gotham again. see if they notice ;)
- I hate gotham for text... the lower case isn't the nicest.Amicus
- neue75_bold0
the 's' also looks a bit like Avenir..
- both the gotham and avenir 's' are a bees dick out.Amicus
- Amicus0
Cheers guys... Yeah, the s wouldn't normally be found in the same type, but it almost works here.
would you make the 'u' wider?
I'm going for a streamline of the logo rather than something totally new. The 3D crap is already gone from my working concepts.
- Amicus0
fuck... I knew I'd seen that dodgy 3D somewhere before.
- Amicus0
thank goodness I get to update this, and rid it of the style rip.
- Amicus0
I'd always assumed it was just similar to an image I'd seen like this:

Definitely not my style to add 3D to a logo.
I'm also ditching the Group... totally unneccessary.
