Showcase : A Grotesk love affair by Ryan Atkinson

Being primarily a product designer rather than a graphic design, it took me a while to ‘get’ typography, after all a font is just a font, right? Wrong! Typography is so unbelievably important in design that once you look into it it’s very easy to understand how people can become obsessed.

Ryan Atkinson has come up with this cool little project called ‘A Grotesk love affair’, where designers could vote for their favourite Grotesk fonts and then the results were turned into posters. Check out the results below.

  1. Sounds like fun and of course, designers could as well learn and be inspired of this project. Mr. Atkinson is a genius for coming up with this idea.
