Type Search Engine?




Have you ever been looking for just the right typeface, but having no idea where to start looking, ended up using helvetica again? I recently found another useful tool for designers that will make an excellent addition to anyones typographic arsenal.

With Esperfonto, you can indicate what you need the typeface to communicate, what style you need(serif, sans and script), and even what other typefaces it needs to be used with.

Compiled by Will Harris, a writer and designer who has also provided a ton of type suggestions. While this should never be the end of a designer's search for the best faunt for the job, it should provide an excellent place to start.

Ha, very interesting site, I just hope they could have more information of the typeface that you are searching. However, it's nice that they even give you the suggestion of pairing typrfaces.
