IKEA - WTF?
What The Font?
I just signed the IKEA, Ikea, Please Get Rid Of Verdana! Petition with this comment - you should too!
"C'mon IKEA, you guys are better than that! Verdana's a web font and dull as a fake Swiss Army Knife. Please stay classic and bring back Futura!"
More outrageous details: IKEA Sans replaced by Verdana.
Go sign it: Ikea, Please Get Rid Of Verdana! Petition.
That's Right,
HMK

I agree, it's a baffling choice.
ReplyDeleteThough "dull as a Finnish funeral" might be a more apt phrase, as Ikea is Swedish not Swiss.
Doh! Gosh I'm sorry Swiss Swede - my bad!
