You need to have a range of different font types and to know how and when to use them. Typefaces come in all different shapes and sizes and can be categorized depending on their characteristics. Fonts can be based in different eras-most type forms were influenced by history. Classifying fonts can help you decide which style to choose and what combinations to use for your next project.
There’s no single classification system; many have been proposed. With so many variables, it's difficult to classify fonts in specific groups. In the last few years, we’ve experienced an explosion of fonts, and many of them blur the lines of type.
In this video, learn about the different types of font classifications that have emerged throughout history. This hybrid list is sure to help you find the right font type for your next project.

This video should definitely have more views! So much value in here!
Excellent explanation 🎉
This was really good. It explained the components of typography indirectly through its application, then it explained a lot of different font categories and subcategories based on typographic choices, and then it also gave some design reasoning for choosing one font over another for a certain purpose. Thanks to the TOC it also can be used as referenced to come back to later while doing actual design work. Thanks a lot for this video.
I started exploring and downloading the fonts back in 2014 without knowing the types as I had no idea about the categories but with the help of this video and some pages, I got to know more about fonts. Thanks a lot.
ive learned about font's and my brain always fell asleep - but this tut summed it up great...
thanks for making it so straight forward and clear
Excellent breakdown. I am in awe of how much I learned and how detailed yet short this has been. Bravo to everyone involved in making this video.
Thank you so much for quick and short video for the revision, some time I totally forget the types and starts to design with common version but this is really great video.
I didn't realize that the world of fonts is so rich and enticing
Lot of value addition....
Very informative. I learned a lot
This video is pure gold!
I'm so glad that I have seen this. Very interesting 🎨🎨🎨
Simple and straight to the point
Amazing introduction for font structure!
Cattedrale for the win!
Typography is my kind of subject. This platform features comprehensive shows than the other platforms combined. Probably, this show was made for me in mind.
Great Channel, very informatic, must-watch video fro all designers and engineers.
I gotta say really calming and beautiful voice!
The speaker has overall confidence.
Well done video, thanks for uploading.
Thank you, this is exactly what l wanted to understand.
Thank you so much for this video
Thank you !
Great video, thank you very much
Very good, like sitting in class again (1980s).
One thing is to make sure the font has a complete range if it's going to be used with a corporate identity.
thank you for the video
Thanks ♥️
If I knew this video when I was a beginner I would save tons of hours. Really helpful, a cornerstone of any graphic designer.
Glad it was helpful!
Thnx!
Thank you a lot!
But what about monospaced fonts?
Last type: Dingbat, was used to insert pictures, basically emojis.
:0
XD
;)
Awesome
Thanks for this! Can't wait for More. Oh and Happy dare day! :d
Is the video missing the “mono” type?
I have the same question.
I could never remember the minutia of details when I had a typography class in college, but here it’s more interesting compared to learning about it in a classroom lol
Agree...
I love the voice. Who is it?
How do serifs help viewers to follow the letterforms easily??? Anybody please answer ASAP
Do viewers need to have a particular font installed on their computer for that font to be used when viewing a website?
Does Jokerman belong to the decorative font family?
It belongs in the trash
I like the details provided on the font types. But, it doesn't actually tell you much about how to use them. For some types it doesn't say anything at all. So the title is inaccurate
they all look the same tbh
