The article tells about a new approach to categorizing fonts that proposed the resource "I Love Typography". Instead of traditional surface categories, they offer a system that takes into account the font design features more deeply. This approach is called Cedars+, which describes the font form based on the characteristics of marks that would make writing tools such as a pen or a chisel.
- 📌 Cedars + includes the following characteristics: Contrast, Energy (Energy), Details (Details), Axis (Axis), Rhythm (Rhythm), Structure (Structure), + (additional characteristics).
- 📌 The amount of a certain characteristic may vary, for example, contrast may be from 'to' extreme 'and energy from' calm 'to' high '.
- 📌 The system is aimed at opening less known designs and designers, and encourage a more creative typography in Web.
🧩 Summary: A new approach to font categorization can help designers and users better navigate the variety of fonts and choose the ones that are most suitable for a particular design.
🧠 Own considerations: this approach can be useful not only for designers but also for ordinary users, as it helps to better understand what characteristics of the font correspond to a certain mood or style. In addition, it can contribute to the development of a more diverse and creative web design.
