As a designer, you know how powerful an image of a human face is—a face on a page or screen attracts the eye like nothing else. And seeing even subtle changes in facial expression can dramatically affect our emotions. However, there’s another face that can affect us just as much: the typeface.
It seems incredible, but our human vision is hard-wired to watch for anything that looks like text—on a page, on a screen, or in any picture. What’s more, the style, color, format, and layout of that text affects us. Studies prove that a choice of typeface can sway our decision making, the spacing of text in a column determines how much we’ll read… that is, the design matters.
