You make us useful

One of our most rewarding experiences as type designers is seeing the fonts we’ve created used well, so we love Fonts In Use, the public archive of typography. Here are just a few wonderful and unexpected examples—you can see more at fontsinuse.com.

Thank you to the graphic designers who make our work worthwhile!
