Typedia: A Shared Encyclopedia of Typefaces

Typedia: A Shared Encyclopedia of Typefaces is “a resource to classify, categorize, and connect typefaces” providing a wealth of information, links, visuals, and sources for many typefaces. Navigate the fonts by type (humanist, poster, sans, etc) or search by name or creator. Each font page links to:

• Designer(s)
• Foundry(ies)
• Release Year
• Country of Origin
• Classification
• Original Format
• Distributor(s)
• Tags

It also provides a background/history for each font, as well as linking to examples “in the wild.” Very well designed, orderly, clean, and useful.
