Does anyone know what font Dyson use here....
[attachimg=1]
I wanted to use it on some in shop display graphics, and assuming the font itself isn't their intellectual property, we can do so. That is, if anyone knows what it is called.
Anyone?

Another quick google without submitting an image for analysing suggests a different font though

I personally cant tell the difference though!

Pretty clever stuff. Thanks for that. :tiphat:

Technically the font is known as 'Dyson Sans' and is for internal use only, i.e. it's a custom design and private IP, not available externally (and tightly controlled internally). It is used - inhouse - exclusively for technology naming and product family names, not for general use. The secondary font is 'Futura BT for Dyson', a slightly tighter spaced version of Futura than commonly available. HTH.

Strong info on a first post. Welcome to the site. :thumbsup:

Since Google's still throwing this up at the top of searches for Dyson Font, probably worth adding that there's an unofficial? recreation? here: https://www.deviantart.com/lyricofficial/art/Dyson-Sans-796904823. It's also possible to grab individual letters from various product PDF documents; not sure if that's what's been done here but this font looks good enough to use unless you're a Dyson designer.
