Boslerism: Typography is everything.
Humans communicate through the written word. Typography is how we express ourselves, sell products, distinguish food from poison, separate one brand from another, understand instructions, stick to the speed limit, bake a soufflé, help our kids fall into fairy tale-induced dreams… You get the idea. The easier it is to read and understand, the better. We rely on typography, so it is important to use it properly.
Confession: Typography is MY everything. I’m a total type dork, type geek AND type nerd. My favorite letter is Q and I could wax on for hours about the subtleties of type, and why you should never ever ever use Papyrus or Comic Sans. Yes, typography is that important to me and the work I create. Type speaks volumes and should never be an afterthought.
