what kind of company? classy and modern... is it a 1950's ballroom dance instruction school?

nothing says class like a day-long rebrand...

what are we talking about here – modern as in, the modern movement? or modern, as people like to use it when they mean contemporary?

since you are using simian, you are talking about a more contemporary san-serif then?
Perhaps Whitney or Gotham

or Galaxie, with its corporate-like-DIN-feeling

im guessing if u rebrand the whole thing ull probably do away with the courier... but the cool thing about courier is that its kinda neutral so...
u cant really go wrong with FS Albert
