(x) State of Design Initiative Victoria 2006 tech sans - Gravur Condensed {Marc O, Dominic Forde (self)}

I was hoping someone could ID this typeface for me?

I'm interested in any other rounded fonts that have a stencily/ auto-cad look to them that you can suggest.

Many thanks,

Dom

The font in my sample was Gravur Condensed available through lineto - apparently it's based on a typeface used on 95% of Swiss letterbox's and doorbells.
God bless the Swiss.

Excellent choice for an Australian Award then?

"rounded fonts that have a stencily/ auto-cad look to them"

There was a time when we would have said 'look like lettering from a Leroy Lettering set'.

Vega TV would have been my candidate for a similar face.
