This book will, on the one hand, help type designers create high legibility typefaces and, on the other hand, help graphic designers determine which is the optimal typeface for a given project. A must-have for type designers and graphic designers.Sofie Beier is a research assistant professor employed at the School of Design under The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. She has a PhD from the Royal College of Art in London, on the subject of typeface familiarity and its relation to legibility. Her current academic research project concerns the review of existing knowledge on typeface legibility put forward by both design and scientific communities.
