univers 65 v. meta

COMPARISONS!!!!

let's see how fast i can do this!

UNIVERS 56 v. META!

  • both are sans-serif fonts with very little modulation!
  • both have double-story "a"s!
  • Univers has a geometric g
  • the terminals of letters such as m, n, r, u, t, etc, all curl away slightly
  • Univers 65 is heavier than meta
  • META WINS!
