There is no Helvetica here. I promise. Nor any Arial.
Instead, I watched the movie Helvetica, and was inspired to make both a "modernist" inspired poster, and then a "grunge" poster - the antithesis of modernism.
Here is the first:

And second, the grunge:

I really liked the movie. Helvetica isn't my favorite font, in fact it isn't even a font I own, but it really works in some situations, just like every other font in existence.
One important thing is how different the two styles really are. One is light, clear, open. The other is murky, intense and secretive. I really think both are kinda cool
At any rate, hurray for creative diversity!!!!
Ciao!
