Yearbook of Type III

The Yearbook of Type presents an independent selection of new digital typefaces created all over the world—from larger publishers to smaller, independent typographers and foundries.

The comprehensive compendium presents a well curated overview that gives an impression of the typeface and its appearance on paper. The emotional and well constructed informative presentation of the typefaces serves designers and agencies as a source of inspiration and help select the right typeface. As a catalog and reference work it is also of interest to all those who are interested in the contemporary world of typesetting and the latest in typeface design.

A small online microsite (www.yearbookoftype.com) leads to the type’s or foundry’s website, to simplify the connection between print and web and to help the user to select, try, or buy a typeface.
