Fonts In Use: Designs and the typefaces used to create them
Here's one to keep your eye on. Fonts In Use is a new, independent project launched by Sam Berlow (publisher), Stephen Coles (editor), and Nick Sherman (designer).
They explain its mission like this: "So much of design critique is focused on graphics and photography. It's time to shed light on the most basic element of communication: the type. At Fonts In Use we'll catalog and examine real-world typography wherever it appears -- branding, advertising, signage, packaging, publications, in print and online -- with an emphasis on the typefaces used."
What will garner much attention is the pairing of interesting design examples and the names of the typefaces used to create them. Thanks to I Love Typography for pointing us to it.
