Why Fonts Matter.

Gingko Press, 04/15/2016. Item #25784
ISBN: 9781584236313


From the Publisher:



Take a look at the experiences and associations type evokes. Fonts have different personalities that can create trust or mistrust, give you confidence, make things seem easier to do or make a product taste better. Understand the science behind how fonts influence what you read. Theyre hidden in plain sight, they trigger memories, associations and multi-sensory experiences in your imagination. You may not believe it, but fonts can change the meanings of words right before your very eyes, alter the taste of your food, evoke emotional responses and reveal their users' personalities. Graphic designer Sarah Hyndman specializes in exploring how fonts influence us as type consumers; Why Fonts Matter synthesizes Hyndman's 20 years of experience as graphic designer with her typographic research and the findings of experimental psychologists and neuroscientists.



From Builders:



We met Sarah Hyndman in San Francisco in 2015 at the "Typo 15" conference. She made a presentation and we sold her then self-published book...sold out that is...as all the designers at the conference wanted her book! We are thrilled that Berkeley publisher Gingko Press took it on for US distribution.
