20 Websites with Beautiful Typography

Jan 11, 2009

Typography in web design plays an integral part in setting the tone, theme, and message of a website.

For example, you can convey a site’s focus on modernity or traditionalism simply by choosing to use serif or sans serif fonts, respectively. You can call attention to particular parts of the content, and deemphasize others, by changing the font’s color, line-height, style, and size. An effective palette of fonts not only makes a design attractive, but also contributes to the readability and usability of the content.

In this collection, you’ll find a variety of sites that showcase creative and functional uses of typography.
