Wednesday Inspiration: Font & Typography | No.7
Crimson Text is a beautiful oldstyle typefaces designed by Sebastian Kosch.
There are a lot of great free fonts around, but one kind is missing: those Garamond-inspired types with all the little niceties like oldstyle figures, small caps, fleurons, math characters and the like. In fact, a lot of time is spend developing free knock-offs of ugly "standards" like Times and Helvetica. ( Reference: Google Fonts )
Crimson Text is available regular, semi-regular, bold weights. Italic versions were also made available for each weight.
Crimson Text is a simple and classic typeface and I like the feel and style. Here is an inspirational mood board that I created it. Do you like this typeface? You can download Crimson Text fonts on GoogleFonts.
