The Importance of a Good Typeface

There is nothing worse than a poorly chosen typeface; it can easily ruin a presentation, brochure, or poster. Even just the shape of the serifs can change the feel of your business card from professional and sleek to wacky and tacky. That is why graphic designers, or anyone who has spent time working with and appreciating fonts, will automatically cringe when shown “Myriad Pro” or dare I say it “Comic Sans.”

Typefaces are just as important as the mission statements businesses use to portray themselves, it is a subtle but impactful art form. Partnering itself with your logo, the typeface featured on your website is the second impression that you’re giving off, so make it count.
