TYPOGRAPHY Typography is a critical element to the Alpha brand. As much of the brand attributes and personalit y are maintained through brand voice, t ypography plays a key role. The typefaces used are Andale Mono and Acumin Pro Wide. These typefaces were designed by Steve Matteson and Robert Slimbach respectively. Andale Mono was created to be used in digital environments mostly in software development, making it perfect for channeling the highly technical world of undercover intelligence. Acumin Pro Wide provides contrast, simplicity and organization,
