Comic Sans, the documentary

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

“Good typography should be like a wonderful clear crystal goblet… much better than a golden goblet with jewels on the outside, because the point of the crystal goblet is that you can see the wine that’s inside; you can appreciate the colours… That’s the purpose of typography — it should be invisible. It should not call attention to itself unless there is a specific reason to do so.”
