Does anyone have any idea what this is?

I’m pretty certain it is a font because I saw one of their vans on the way to work this morning. There was more text in a style that seemed to be the same, unfortunately I didn’t have a camera with me.

It is simalr to (but not the same as) Process Type’s Klavika

Thanks

( Slightly customized ) ‘Alwyn’, by Chris Dickinson / Identikal..

Thanks Dav, that certainly looks very much like it.

Unfortunately Identikal’s Typeviewer does not seem to want to play with Alwyn for me.

And, the van wasn’t parked having its breakfast this morning to compare other glyphs.

This is not really relevant anymore as the company seems to be changing its brand at the moment, but purely out of curiosity…

I saw the van again yesterday, and was able to photograph it (complete with me and my “I like type.” tee).

With a few more characters to work with, it looks less like Alwyn.

OT: is it just me, or is this site behaving very strangely ATM? Uppercase fora seem to have disapeared completely, “Access Denied” to various threads and the Wiki, etc.
