Mobile phone app logo type recommendation

all about seb

Hello everyone,

i am currently working on a logo for a cell phone/web-based dating application. After some client feedback, I am now looking for some alternatives to the current font (Linear by E + F). The logomark has been approved, but the current type choice is lacking the ’speed’ element which should be reflected in the type. I’ve tried various light italic sans serifs (with Neutraface being the best match i’ve got so far), but i think that i need something with a lower x-height and shorter extender length (like Linear).

I am grateful for any suggestions,

Seb

How about Chalet 1970? s and e are speedier maybe mixed with 1980 for f, r and t

btw that red to blue grad might prove difficult in print

Tim, thanks for the suggestion - i ll give that a try.

Or maybe you could shorten the extenders? Neutra italic is really nice.
