Richard and Chloe are living on a hill in San Francisco. It’s an old building with an old landlady, but the rent is cheap.

They’re having a party and I keep going to check up on the guests. Everyone has a dish in their hands and we’re running out of dishes.

I’m talking to one of their neighbors about the personality of different typefaces. I say that the character of an era or an age comes out in the way they use typography. Type isn’t just superficial styling.

  1. This post made me think about the typeface used for the show Rhoda. See http://www.mortystv.com/showcards/rhoda.jpg

  2. That comment completely disproves the point I was making in my dream! I would consider that typeface to be in the Art Deco style of the 1920s: http://www.fontscape.com/explore?8C6
