Fontwalk

FontShop of­fers the biggest se­lec­tion of dig­i­tal orig­i­nal fonts. To in­tro­duce the new fonts and to high­light in­ter­est­ing top­ics, a for­mat was sought to re­place the orig­i­nal list of fonts. Every three months, the Font­walk mi­crosite show­cases the lat­est fonts and trends. Font­walk rep­re­sents the pure joy of fonts and is in­tended to in­spire de­signer and client alike. Charm­ingly de­vel­oped font de­scrip­tions in­form the reader of the font while fil­ter­ing out the specifics – they are re­vealed piece by piece as if the reader is on a jour­ney through the fonts them­selves. Mov­ing im­ages il­lus­trate the unique qual­i­ties of each font and the sto­ries be­hind them.

The con­tent is fo­cused and the text is short – sim­i­lar to In­ter­net-based read­ing habits.
So far, three is­sues of Font­walk have been pub­lished.
