pimp my helvetica

hello there,

I'm redesigning a poster for Bridgestone.(the ugly sticky thing where the car repair master writes the results of his tires tests ). As its displayed in several coutrys, the poster is written in 2 languages.


the actual poster uses a Helvetica for a language, and some kind crappy Times New Roman for the other language.
I don't like so much this serif/sans serif contrast, and I would like to use Roman / Oblique

As I think Helvetica oblique is a nonsense (oh fuck I'm starting a new thread...) I would like to try another font, wich Roman would be as nice as oblique.

here is where I'm stuck...

exactly ? hum... I wish I knew !

I'm looking for a font that would exist in two shapes different enough for language differenciation but that would not make a language more important/goodlooking than the other.

tough uh ?
