fonts that fit the product

The first picture is a nice design but I think the typeface should be something with more character. The second font fits the character of Mr. Kuerner who was a kind of prickly, German farmer.

Wow, what a detailed, drawn font. I can't imagine trying to duplicate it by hand. Quirky and fun and lots of interesting details.

This is a cool, rectangular font. Very architectural and laminated woodish.

fonts inspired by my abstract art paper

I just finished a paper about Mondrian the abstract artist who reduced artwork down to it's absolute essence. He ended up with vertical and horizontal lines and primary colors and then just white. So, I wanted to find some fonts that were boiled down to their essense also.

A little out of focus but some pretty,interesting fonts that go with the product they are advertising.

Interesting A for this title. Makes me think of mountains rather than water gardens. And the I is touching the n in Sandwich. Annoying. Intentional or a mistake?

Fonts that are popular in England for home addresses.

And then just a pretty, creative font that uses a flower and stem in every single letter.

dark fonts

Two fonts that are kinda dark and halloweenish and creative. Interesting to put pictures on/over letters.

The same R

Two different products have the same R. They must like it's swash-buckling look.

when the font fits the content of the book

ropey-looking fonts

The top font looks very Art Nouvea but the only word I can read at first glance is the last one books

The second font is made of what it is. Some very creative person must have thought of this!

two interesting fonts

So, the first font is pretty, very plant-like, but impossible to read. The second font is some cowboyBurt font that reminds me of a boot and worn mountains or mesas.

book fonts

Here is type from two book covers. One a cookbook and another a teen book. Not sure about the dot in the O for the cook book. The teen book looks very glamorous and art deco.

backpack type

Here is the type from my backpack. Both are different from each other, with one being serif and the other non-serif. Though they are both in all uppercase letters they have a different feel. The "the north face" seems really in your face type where the "everest" is a little more historic, geography class feel. Now, maybe it's the meaning of the type that is persuading me.

tangerines and beer

The tangerines typeface is all round and juicy like the fruit. The serifs are rounded and curved and look all cute. The Wolverine typeface is very angled diamond-shaped barb serifs. Looking very formidable except for the uppercase R that has an oh so casual leg.

Now onto typography

Hi all, I am taking several classes at College for Creative Studies and one of the classes is Typography II. So, I'll be blogging and posting pics of interesting letters, words, forms, whatever on this blog and hopefully get some art, poetry and philosophy sometimes stuck in there.

So, here are two interesting, if out of focus, typefaces. I think they are appropriate for the item they represent, but I wonder how different they would be if there wasn't color around them nudging me in a direction?
