Pinterested: New pins this week

It’s a new year and with a new year comes new trends. As we pointed out last week, we won’t stop pinning in our Type Trends pinboard, but don’t forget to check out our other pinboards to see what’s happening out there in the type world!

Our Found Type board will show well-known (and a few not so obvious) typefaces used in different ways to help demonstrate how something as common as Didot or Avant Garde can still make a design look good. Or if you’re stuck in a creative block, how about visiting our Ideas & Inpiration pinboard? Here, you’ll find various uses of type from lettering to lasercut acrylic or wood (and other physical type) as well as fun and awesome uses of typography.

Follow us on Pinterest and have fun look at type all weekend long!

Pinterest: FontShop blog series boards

As our Type Trends series comes to a close, we want to remind you that you can always take a quick peek at our Type Trends pinboard to refresh your memory about what’s currently trending. Even though our font expert, David, won’t be going in-depth about the current trends anymore, that doesn’t mean polychromatic type, stenciling, or handmade signage is going out of style anytime soon!

We also have our Great Pairs series pinned so you can visualize some of the type pairings that David has put together for the past couple months. Check out our Great Pairs pinboard for classic pairings like Benton Sans and Benton Modern or unsettling couplings such as Maxime and FF Legato.

Stay tuned for David’s next series, Using Type!
