Win 4 Free Copies of ‘The Big Book of Font Combinations’

by Otba Mushaweh | Posted in Events | 28 Comments »

The Big Book of Font Combinations is an expansive collection of carefully crafted typeface pair samples. The BBOFC will inspire you and give you back time  you need for you design projects. Use the font combination examples straight out of the BBOFC in your next project, or use them as a springboard for your own creativity. However you use the BBOFC, it’s bound to inspire and is a trustworthy companion to consult for all kinds of design projects and general study of typography.

The Big Book of Font Combinations book is written by Douglas Bonneville – You can learn more about the author here – It’s took over 50 of top typefaces and combined them amongst themselves, yielding over 350 typeface pairings. It is a great resource for creating great looking combinations of typefaces and fonts for design projects using a carefully selected library of classic typefaces.

Who is this book for?

It is for professional designers, students, and hobbyists alike. Students will learn the names and visual characteristics of some of the most popular typefaces in all of graphic design history. Professionals will find inspiration and save valuable time in the process. In most cases, a designer has to sort through a typeface collection using a type manager application (like Suitcase Fusion), turning individual fonts on and off for use in their design program.

We will give away a total of 4 copies of the book, and the contest will run for a week, with the results announced on September 7th, and will be contacted by email directly.
