TYPE is the essence of graphic communication. When a typeface is carefully selected and skillfully used, it can enhance the meaning if the written word and communicate a message instantly and effectively to the intended audience. Conversely, when a typeface is mismatched to a project, the results can have a opposite effect, ranging from the banal to the downright illegible.

The book features ninety examples of creative, innovative, and appropriate uses of type in projects ranging from business card to brochures to self-promotional mailers. Some projects may use a beautiful script letter as a central element in the design, while others take a more subtle, understated approach, using a carefully selected, classic sans serif style. Whatever the choice, these projects reveal a love of letters - and a sensitivity to the message at hand.
