\"I<\/a><\/p>\n

There’s a site I’ve been following for a while that has been a great inspiration for some of the changes we’ve been making to GoSquared. Over the last few months we’ve paid a lot more attention to the design of Liquidicity (this blog), and more specifically, we’ve been looking into how to improve typography around the site.<\/p>\n

I Love Typography<\/a> is a really useful, inspiring site run by a guy named Johno all about typography. Covering the latest free fonts, type news, tuition on typographic terms, and a bit of humour to lighten things up, I Love Typography is a useful resource for anyone with an interest in making letters and words look as awesome as they can.<\/p>\n

I’ve decided to write a little about the site because a) it’s been a great source of inspiration to me, and b) it recently had a redesign that some of you may not have seen. The old site used to look great, but the improved design is much cleaner and easier to navigate – usability is paramount.<\/p>\n

\"Some<\/a><\/p>\n

Just a few examples of the kind of stuff that gets featured on I Love Typography include a limited edition Helvetica Moleskine (up for grabs!<\/a>), tuition on vertical metrics<\/a>, and a lovely leather ‘type bag<\/a>‘ for the other half.<\/p>\n

Of note, every week you can be sure to be updated on the latest, best, and weirdest examples of type in the world in Johno’s “The week in Type<\/a>” set of posts. A huge amount of work goes into these hugely informative, inspiring posts that can only be produced by a true type fanatic. What would we do without him?<\/p>\n

All in all, if you’re ever stuck for typographic inspiration<\/a>, you know where to look!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
