Hi all,

I need some suggestions about the number “100”.
I already read similar post but can remember any with the number “100”. Made a search and did not found anything...
I’m preparing a logo for a company that makes 100 years next year.
So I’m looking for a typeface for the “100”.
I want a “classic look”, “strong” (bold?), “straith” not italic, sans or not...
I made some test and these are is “my results”...
Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance
António

Hi António,

how big will it be displayed? You’ve set your examples at a size where all of them look a little bit blunt, to me. There are display versions of Bodoni, Arno and Chaparral that would have some more character.

Florian,

Thanks for the suggestion. I really enjoy better Arno Display...

“how big will it be displayed?”
Well...not shure yet, but not big. Only in catalogues and some ceramic pieces (gifts...etc).
