“Off Book: Typography”

PBS Arts has just come out with this really nice, brief look at the significance of typefaces. It includes great insights by some of today’s best type designers like Hoefler & Frere-Jones and Paula Scher.

“Words have meaning and type has spirit, and the combination is spectacular.”
—Paula Scher

today i dropped by anthropologie‘s website and it was more than the clothing that made me swoon. well, i always love their graphic design, but today their typography really caught my eye. even though these are well-photoshopped approximations of hand-written chalkboards, i still have a real appreciation for the designs. hey, i love digital fonts too!
