Art director and typography expert Ina Saltz demystifies the process in this course. She’ll show you how to choose the right typeface for the job, considering factors such as readability, typographic anatomy, and historical context. She’ll then demonstrate how to combine your chosen fonts effectively and harmoniously, based on contrast, similarity, or mood. Finally, knowing there’s always an exception to the rule, Ina explains how breaking these guidelines might make sense for your design.
