Web Typography Goes Big
As that web has exploded in popularity over the past ten or so years, we’ve somehow let the typographic capabilities slip. Being limited to those same 6 or so typefaces and a pure horizontal grid can be a challenge to any designer. But designers are finally breaking free and innovating in new and exciting ways. In other words, web typography is heating up.
From Smashing Magazine, a blog about web designy stuff, comes a collection of sites that feature big typography. Big usually means bold and large-scale. Chunky, retro, and daring are also words that come to mind. Have a look and be inspired.
And yes, some of these are images, but we won’t split hairs.
