My interest in this stemmed from some recent reading/thinking about colour theory and how different palettes and overall tones create vastly different moods and meanings.</p> <p>It seems obvious to me that this would apply equally to type. I realize that this is an incredibly subjective and often intuitive thing, but surely there are some broad issues or even more specific research by individuals into this? </p> <p>There are a million resources out there that talk about colour in this way, but I am having a tough time finding the right way to seek out similar resources with regards to type. So far, any search terms I&#8217;ve tried haven&#8217;t brought up the right kinds of information for which I&#8217;m searching.</p> <p>So... all you Typophiles out there... what can you recommend?</p> <p>Many thanks!</p> http://typophile.com/node/41279#comments General Discussions Thu, 24 Jan 2008 11:34:08 -0800 tam7875 41279 at http://typophile.com
