EllaS 0 Posted February 20 Hi! I've recently noticed a trend in typography that has distinctively playful shapes and thick/thin contrast (see attached image for example, this is 'Blackest' by Zetafonts). I was wondering if you know of any similar typefaces. This style is super appealing to me and always catches my attention. Also wondering if this type of font design or its characteristics have any particular name, other than 'display'. Thanks for your time and have a fun day! -Ella 🙂 Share this post Link to post
Ralf Herrmann 893 Posted February 21 Not sure if that’s what you meant, but one of the defining characteristics of that sample is called reversed contrast: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse-contrast_typefaces https://www.myfonts.com/search/tag%3A"reverse+contrast"/fonts/ 1 Share this post Link to post
