Aren’t all those "Company Name" in Helvetica trademarks?


I loved how American Airlines and Apparel both used Helvetica.

These days, the one I find shocking is Monday.com and Slack. Both have names in lowercase black Circular, their logos use pill-shaped elements in similar shades of primary colors, and they're both in the business productivity space. The branding is so close you'd swear they're sibling products like IntelliJ and CLion.


Redrawing a font design outline from scratch is fair game (fortunately or unfortunaly depending on who you are).
