“I Love Type” ist eine Buchreihe, die von Viction:ary und TwoPoints.Net herausgegeben wird.

I Love Helvetica

Pressetext: Taking in the efficiency of the early sans-serifs but more oblong with a greater consistency of stroke weight, Helvetica has proliferated and continued to take over the world of design and advertising since Swiss typeface designer Max Miedinger designed it in 1957, as commissioned by Edüard Hoffmann from Haas Type Foundry. Its Swiss sublimity has extended to languages as varied as Latin, Greek, Japanese and Korean, and inspired variants, including the better-known Neue Helvetica introduced in 1983.

I Love Times

Pressetext: Updated as Times New Roman in 1932 and subsequently gain the name “Times Old Roman”, Times was originally commissioned and used by British newspaper The Times until Stanley Morison publicly criticised it for being badly printed in paper and typographically behind the times. Although more known as a book or print type nowadays, Times and its modern variants also speak a variety of sensations and messages in everyday life besides annual reports and office correspondence. Stanley Morison was later assigned to supervise the redesign of Times in collaboration with the Monotype Corporation.
