Recently a friend of ours was looking for new house numbers.
Because of time constraints, she ended up with House Numbers from Restoration Hardware. They're classic and look fine but she really wants something more. . . distinctive.

THanks for this...I'm actually looking at housenumbers, so it's a good resource. We might be going with a custom piece, however: 4 2x3' panels of steel with 1 digit cut out of each, rusted to a certain point and then sealed, then mounted on a trans panel to cover the backlighting hardware/bulb, and mounted on a brick wall that will be built in front of the house to complete the front patio area. Big, Huge, Rough numbers - but I really really really like the Neutra font from the 4th link....
Thanks for the list!
Also, check out Chiasso for the Signo numbers and a couple other styles:
