My Typeface Progression
Here are the typefaces that I have liked and primarily used from high school through college. What is your typeface progression? This was inspired by Jessica Hische. Check out her Daily Drop Cap.

I love Love LOVE Futura, it is probably my favorite. I consider Papyrus the Official Font of God, I don’t think it works that great on display type, it’s OK for body text. I’m fond of Adobe Garamond Pro, its rather elegant, I use it in the OQZ (quarterly publication of the Norman Queer Alliance), which I design. I am changing around the next issue though slightly. Wide Latin is a fun font for display.

Where’s the comic sans?!

In high school there was a phase where I would try to use Maiandra GD on everything. Everything. Don’t worry Seth… I used Comic Sans and Papyrus before knowing better too.
Now my favorite typeface is Univers. And I love Univers condensed. I can’t get enough of it. NOM NOM NOM.

I actually had a poster I made with Papyrus in my portfolio that I submitted to be in Vis Comm.

I dig futura. It was my font of choice a couple years back. Lately I’ve been crushing hard on these two beauts.
