Type Observation

26th of April, 2007

Doing a little design today I noticed something about two common fonts. Georgia and Verdana never look good at the same size, Verdana looks good small while Georgia doesn’t, the bigger they get the better Georgia looks and the worse Verdana gets. Here’s a little demo

Lorem Ipsum Dolor

Verdana (also this blog’s body typeface)

Georgia looking good at larger sizes.

Just a little observation I wanted to share.
