When you have to make a book cover, a presentation poster, or a company advertisement, one of the most important tools for a creating designer is a typewriter. You want beautiful fonts that match the essence of what you’re creating. For example, imagine you have to make a presentation for an Event; You will need fonts with more “dark”, “vampiric” fonts, etc. But they are not the same as those used on Valentine’s Day, are they?
Beautiful fonts are subjective. What looks beautiful creating to you may not be to another person. For this reason, when presenting projects, it is better to have several types of articles for presentation and for the end customer to choose the one they like best; Rather than prioritizing what you like creating. But what is considered beautiful typing?
What do you know about letters?
Fonts can be conceptualized as a way of designing the typeface you are going to use. In other words, is the way letters are drawn (numbers, symbols …) to achieve a striking visual effect and is very different between them. In fact, it is quite different from lettering or calligraphy, although these three methods are similar, especially for creating letters and other alphabetic numbers.
To give you an idea, fonts refer to print or digital media, four types are available:
- Serif. They are typefaces that have serifs (hence their name), serifs, corner ornaments, etc. The most popular ones are Times New Roman, and Garamond … They are classified as serious and traditional fonts and are used for large texts because they facilitate reading.
- Sans serif. In this case, they don’t have any flourishes or endings that would make beautiful letters. They focus on the commercial, to give you an elegant, safe, minimal, and modern feel of what you want to show. In fact, it is used in posters, advertisements, etc. Examples of this? Helvetica, Gotham, Futura…
- Slab serif. Another name they get is “Egyptian”. In this case, there are serifs and endings, but unlike serifs, they are thick and try to stand out in headlines or advertising. For example, with Clarendon.
- version. Here we can say that it is the place where beautiful fonts can be found. Because they are typefaces, they are mainly based on a hand-made typewriter that tries to write letters. That is why they can be found in a variety of ways.
Beautiful letters?
If we add the adjective “beautiful” to fonts, most people think that they are aesthetically beautiful fonts. But they almost always associate it with romanticism and therefore femininity. But it really doesn’t have to be.
A truly beautiful keyboard is one for your taste. But in a project, you should guide yourself to find the typeface that is appropriate for the work you are doing, be it a book, a poster, an advertisement, etc.
