Read the book, Typographic Firsts. Among my favorite kinds of typefaces are those that don’t fit neatly into predefined or existing categories; those that dip their toes into more than one genre, or take their cues from disparate historical periods. These twilight zone hybrids aren’t always easy to pull off. Today, I’m featuring an in-between typeface that pulls it off […].

We say it all the time because it’s true: CSS and JavaScript are capable of some amazing feats. Web-based animation is a prime example. Not long ago, animation on the web was a bit rudimentary – save for add-on technology such as Flash. The movements were basic and often trended towards cartoonish. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, just not a great fit for every project.

The brand fonts are carefully chosen to be not only legible but also to represent the brand’s personality and be relevant to the industry that the brand exists within. It would be unusual to typeset a comic book in Times New Roman or use Comic Sans in an important government document (despite being on-brand for some governments).

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.
