A light, breezy look at type that reflects each designer's personal taste. I can define my type personality in 3 eras: Univers for the early years, Meta for mid career, and now it's Avenir. I'm a sans serif girl.

I love that the proceeds go to UNICEF. Always happy to see designers unite for an important cause.

We love fonts. Seriously. We. LOVE. Fonts.

And the simplicity of a book that really just shows you typefaces that fifty designers are currently digging is the kind of understated awesomosity that we just love.

Plus: 100% of the proceeds go to UNICEF. So you can be a design nerd for charity. WOO HOO!
