H&R Font

H&R Block has a simple, recognizable logo.

I would dare say it’s in need of updating, mainly to appeal to those of us who like fonts.

To those who aren’t as well-versed in fonts: let me start by saying that block is a style of font. Sans-serif. Probably all caps.

So I updated H&R Block to use other styles of fonts:

updated H&R Block logo to show serif, script, blackletter, handwritten, and H&R Circle

That last one is not a font update, but rather a nod to those people who don’t like sharp corners. You never know – maybe there is a market for H&R Circle.

He said to His disciples, “ It is inevitable that stumbling blocks come, but woe to him through whom they come!
