Another strikingly handsome modern display serif is Connary Fagen’s Wayfinder. This slim, flared 14 font family looks dapper and refined. Even the tittle of the lowercase i is tastefully tapered.

How a typeface helped launch Apollo
 

How a typeface helped launch Apollo

In honor of the 50th anniversary of the first moon landing, Douglas Thomas gives a TED Talk on the role of Futura in the Apollo 11 mission.

<i>Knives Out</i> title font
 

Knives Out title font

Rian Johnson’s upcoming film is a tribute to the whodunnit genre, and its bespoke font was fittingly reconstructed from the lettering of Agatha Christie paperback covers. The Made Shop has a time-lapse video of the font’s creation.

Ikea’s Soffa Sans
