Feeding my font fetish….
At the risk of exposing a slightly wierd aspect of myself I must tell you I have a thing about type faces. I love them. Well, not all of them. Some I wouldn’t give the time of day to while others I find totally irresistible. Anyway don’t want to get too wierd but do want to share with you this quirky site I found today via Jessica at How About Orange where you enter the office of an apparent descendent of Freud himself who asks 4 probing and indepth questions to reveal the type face that best suits your personality. I’m not normally into this sort of hoo-hah but obviously due to my font fetish I found it very cool and was very excited when given my final diagnosis….
Archer Hairline is a font I hadn’t heard of before but as soon as I saw it I new it was my font and with ”outbreaks of emotion and little dots of elegance” who could argue.
How cool is that? I know, it’s wierd.
Fun though…. http://www.pentagram.com/what-type-are-you/ enter the password “character”.

He he. I love fonts too….. and I agree they are all expressive in idfferent ways and settings! I did the test too and…guess what…. mine is Archer Hairline too! Elegant yet with a little emotion hiding in there too! Fun. Thank you Phillipa!

I love them too Pip, and only recently discovered how to download a bunch of cool ones. Our little ones are into Super Heroes so downloaded a heap of ‘Kaboom’ type faces. Very fun!

Hey Ang,
Might have to check out ‘Kaboom’ for my boys.
Love that you’re creating a whole new generation of font lovers!
