Font suggestions for Como identity

Hello everyone!
We are a group of students doing a visual identity project about Como, Italy. We need font suggestions for the logo of the city we created: it should be sans serif and possibly coherent with the different identities of Como (romanesque decoration, rationalist movement of Terragni, liberty-inspired elegance). Attached some images of reference.
We were thinking of Neutraface because of its geometry matching that of our logo, but it turned out to be a predictable choice and the result was too "fascist".

Thank you very much for your help.

In the same vein of Neutraface, but much more apt, there's Novecento:

If you could show us the logo, it would be easier to suggest less geometric alternatives.

Como is not sans.
