Sorry for the unrelated thread but I know how we all love our trendy little bikes, skinny jeans, obscure subcultures and graphic design here.
I’m doing a type research project at uni and my allocated Font is VERDANA (and yes I’ve left it until last minute)
I’m basically finished besides the last component which is finding a brand that uses Verdana in their logo/branding and an example of that logo/branding…
Yes this sounds like an easy task for Google, except Verdana is designed primarily for screen use and does not lend itself toward logos/branding all that well… therefore finding examples has proven quite difficult!
It’s a silly hour of the morning and I am at an end, delirious, about to retire to bed and was hoping some graphic design heads out there might be able to lend me a hand whilst I dream of kerning, x-heights, black skivvies, and a world without Comic Sans…
Many thanks in advance!

ps. lets try not to make this a thread about how IKEA have ditched Futura in favor of Verdana in their 2010 catalogue and advertising collateral
