Today’s post features inspiring examples of web typography from a number of sources, from design agencies to freelancers to a hot dog shop. Modern browsers are becoming more capable of rendering type. Attention to the setting and arrangement of type on the digital page is a necessity for any designer. Granted some of the examples below still rely on images of text rather than browser-rendered type. However, a number of the examples showcase creative uses of type relying only on CSS, HTML & Javascript. Gone are the days of flashing hard to read text. Web typography is becoming an art form in and of itself. As the technical barriers to implementing beautiful type on a website diminish, we are seeing far more creative uses of type in ways that would not have been possible only a few years ago. Thank goodness because if we never see another neon green Comic Sans headline we’ll be thrilled.
