It only makes sense that if you have one then you should have two.
In addition to my recent obsession with textures that I talked about yesterday, I've always had a keen interest in typography. Letters, numbers and the combination of each have always stuck out to me. And you're probably asking yourself what the hell I'm talking about right about now. Well, I notice and value the little things like kerning, leading and letter-spacing. This all makes sense given my occupation but I find myself critiquing just about anything and everything with text and let's face it, that's just about everything we view on a daily basis.
In my opinion, you can tell a great deal about a designer based on the font they choose to utilize. Helvetica: someone who is relatively new to design or someone who just wants to use the graphic standard. Times: someone who is too lazy to change the default. Comic Sans: I would have nothing good to say about this person so I won't. Personally, I'm a big fan of Caslon, Verlag and although a little more specialized Requiem.
