I don’t know about you, but I can easily get lost looking at beautiful fonts and typography. It’s something I’ve been fascinated with since I was little and find myself when I’m feeling a little blue or dry on inspiration searching through Pinterest for new ones to try out. I have a friend Paige who is a graphic designer (and sadly left us for Nashville when she got married) and I started following some of her boards because she would find the coolest images.
Now, I have stashes of saved notes in Evernote, my g-mail drafts and random stickies on my computer with the names of my favorites so that on different occasions I can find what I’m looking for. I’m drawn to sans-serif fonts (without any curves on the ends) and enjoy simple signs outside of restaurants or coffee shops with basic lines. However, you guys know I also love handwriting and have a special affinity for those fonts as well.
I’ve stumbled upon really awesome posts (like this one with 16 days of type in Paris) that I love to look back at and see how I can continue to push my own creativity. I’ve gathered some of my personal favorite fonts and Pinterest boards for you to check out yourself!
