Sans to pair with ITC Giovanni

matthew_dob

I am the typographer who came in from the cold (forum member for almost six years).

I work at a church where Giovanni is used for most communications, and so I'm tied to using it or something that complements it.

I'm tempted just to go with Myriad – it was designed by the same typographer, and I have it installed. But it strikes me as too easy. In the past I've seen Myriad overused not because it's a fantastic face (it is) but because it's packaged with Adobe software.

Should I just quit complaining and go with Myriad or go with something more interesting (like Cronos, also by Slimbach). It's quite touchy-feely, which I think works well for a church.

Thanks in advance.

Yep, go Cronos. Myriad has become too ubiquitous to the point of appearing pedestrian.

Thanks for the advice. To the MyFontsMobile!
