Some sort of hybrid bauhaus

This might be some custom hack, I don't know... Most of the letters are in the round bauhaus style, but there are a few idiosyncracies: The 'e' looks light it's straight from Frutiger, the 's' is normal, and the 'C' is very closed, and more oval than round. Otherwise, most of the letters follow the bauhaus style. It's a medium-bold weight.

I am amazed by the knowledge of some of the people answering here, but I think even they will have difficulty identifying the face from a blank screen!

I don't have a sample. Just the description.

I'm thinking more and more that it's custom. I saw it on TV on some signage, and it just seemed so deliberate, like someone said, "well I don't like the e or the s, they just don't look normal." I mean, it's literally the e from Fruitger, which is not very Bauhaus.

Colin, give me a minute while I check my cristal ball.
