New Favorite Font: Gotham



I stumbled across this font when searching for a new font to freshen up my designs for the year. Sounds kind of weird, but I do this frequently. I find new body fonts, headline fonts and funky fonts to introduce into my layouts. I have been using it for about a month now. I love Gotham. This font is simple. gorgeous. modern. It makes your layouts fresh and clean.

Did you read this article in the NYT about the new Clearview font that was developed for highway signs? It's was a pretty cool discussion of the details that make up a good font.
