Futura Coincidence

I went to wash my truck a few weeks ago and was floored to see what I thought was graffiti from one of my favorite artists, Futura 2000. Right there on the wall was the stylized letters spelling Futura.

In a few moments, I realized that it was not graffiti, but actually the name of the carwash system. I still thought the font looked very similar and took a picture for comparison. The more I look at this, the more it is just a weird coincidence. They aren't really all that similar, but you can see where I might have thought they were at first. The white box with black text is Futura 2000's signature. The colorful sign is from the carwash.
