Fonts In Use
Feb 8, 2011
If you may be looking for good resources on real world examples of typeface design and usage, look no further than the relatively new site Fonts In Use. What I like most is that they don’t follow one specific industry or format, and they offer it to be further broken down by individual typeface. Not only that, it’s just wonderful analysis on par with the likes of what I’ve read from the gang at Under Consideration. The catalog of posts here are not quite vast yet, but it’s getting there.
