Helvetica

Helvetica? More like HELLvetica, amirite?

Nah, but seriously it's an incredible typeface. I'm sick to death of it and I try to avoid it where possible (purely because it is usually a 'default' type decision, and default usually means you're not thinking hard enough) but that doesn't change the fact that it is practically perfect in every way...

Check out the abovenamed film. It's default because we don't want it to SAY anything, the words it's representing should be doing that. I'm always suspicious of any designers who use typefaces to express anything.
