Helvetica Bar

[HEL-VET-ICA] (N):

1. A sans-serif typeface associated with neutrality and clarity and widely used by the graphic design community.

2. Derived from the offical Latin name of Switzerland.

3. A bar hidden amongst the office towers of Perth's Central Business District.

Considering this little (and we mean little - It's teeny tiny) city haunt is named for a font so popular it has spawned its own range of apparel, line of products and even its own movie, it comes as little surprise the bar is aimed at a similar market of creative types and design enthusiasts - although the fit out is a departure from the crisp, utilitarian lines of font. Soft furnishing, warm lighting and an awesome cabinet built to store a bottle of whisk(e)y just for you, it's more home-y than swiss sans serif, but it exudes about the same amount of cool.
