Know Your Type
To continue a steady dose of design and/or typography related content recently, I offer up an interesting series I just came across from the new design blog idsgn called Know Your Type.
So far they have done the research of the history and usage of four different typefaces (all sans-serif so far) and presented it in a very well-done manner. A serif font is promised next in the series.
Gotham (made recently popular by a certain Presidential campaign)
Futura
It wouldn’t take me long to find uses for any of the above.
