UNSW signage font (1 Viewer)

[routemarker]

does anybody know where i can find the font that UNSW use for its signage and publications? I kind of like it.

i would help to know the name of the font used ........
alternatively, u cud go to www.font.com / www.1001freefonts.com and see if any of em r the one used by UNSW

i have a feeling that UNSW created the font themselves

I think you're right, they probably own the font (and all associated rights)

Just look for something similar, I suppose

most major corporate identities use new fonts (or modified versions of older ones -- the telstra font is a bastardised version of arial i think ). go into the library and try to find the unsw style manual. they ought to have one, detailling signage, colour schemes, etc... designers put them together after they do an identity so the client can do more of their own signs/stationary/whatever afterwards. (nb it'll probably on closed reserve or not for loan, the uts one is)
