Typography is a very beautiful and inspiring craft. It is an art to be mastered and an important element in design. To be a good designer, you have to love type, you have to understand type and you have to be willing to dive head first into this vast world and slowly peel away at its mysterious hidden layers.
The fonts that you choose to use can easily make or break your designs. Imagine spending hours on a design, having it almost perfect and then, carelessly adding a typeface that instantly devalues the impact of your work? This is every designers nightmare and most of us avoid this dreadful fate by amassing quite an extensive font collections over the years. Today, I want to help you do just that. I want to help you avoid the perils of misused fonts by introducing you to some amazing and free online fonts available to you on the wonderful world of the internet.
