Saturday seems to be a good day to play a font game. Pick which of two fonts feels more expressive — then see how your judgement compares with everyone else’s. tptq.com/got-character

We're working on a new type specimen where fonts are ranked by expressiveness. Help us sort them: look at two fonts, pick the more expressive one. Simple as that. (You might spot some unreleased typefaces. 🤫) tptq.com/got-character

Do you read Hindi? We need your help. Our typographic research explores how Hindi speakers perceive letter weight — and what stroke thickness feels best in Devanagari and Latin scripts. Take part: tptq.com/weight-hindi
मोटे अक्षर घने दिखते हैं और ध्यान आकर्षित करते हैं, जबकि हल्के अक्षर नरम महसूस होते हैं और उतने उभरकर नहीं दिखते।

It is difficult to illustrate the scale of the Zed type system, which has four variable axes and a separate optical version. So we asked Just van Rossum to create an interactive visualisation of the design space. www.typotheque.com/blog/a-typef...

People perceive thickness of letters very individually, and that’s why we are conducting Font Weight Survey to understand the regional preferences of font weight. Could we ask you for 10 min of your time? The findings will be published publicly once we have some results. tptq.com/weight

Terrassa Display and Gradient both contain five variable axes. We considered providing traditional static fonts, but that would produce over 10,000 variations, which would overwhelm your font menu. Instead, we deliver Terrassa Display and Gradient as variable fonts. typotheque.com/fonts/terrassa
