Actually, you’re post spurred the Typowiki entry. I’ve been part of posts in the past that asked this very question, so I figured it was a good idea.

Thank you very much for all

Thank you very much for all the suggestions, has been a great help.

It appears that i could have posted this topic in the wrong category and could have used Typowiki which to be honest, not being a regular user, i didnt know existed. So apologies for all these mistakes, will do better next time. :)

As often as this topic comes up, maybe a typowiki entry on rounded sans wouldn’t be a bad idea. Organized based on text and display perhaps?

I’ll start a category here: Rounded Typefaces

May I suggest Nick Cooke’s

May I suggest Nick Cooke’s G-Type Chevin, FF Speak or Elsner+Flake Isonorm. Another great one would have been GE Insipira but you certainly know this is a General Electric custom proprietary font, so not available...

If I ever wanted a rounded type, i would go with Omnes, which David just linked to. Nothing else comes close to its elegance in this genre, IMO.

I guess there have been threads on Typophile naming VAG alternatives or ’Rounded Fonts’ in general in the past, but you may like ’Omnes’, by Joshua Darden, and, ’Gotham Rounded’, by H&FJ. (And, of course, the newly released ’Unit Rounded’, by Erik Spiekermann.)

Vag Rounded Alternatives

jamesaallen — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 02:08:53 -0800

Hello.

I am doing an identity branding for a client who would like to use Vag Rounded. I seem to be using this more and more with clients and would like to have something similar, but a little different.

I was wondering if anybody could throw any ideas in the air as to what alternatives there could be to Vag Rounded.

Thanks a lot.
