    Do you remember the first typeface you fell in love with? I do. It was Fall 2005, and I fell hard for Franklin Gothic Medium. I didn't go through a Helvetica phase until later after I had graduated because I had a professor who forbid our love.

    Rebound your first true love.

    First Love

    by Dan Eden

    The first typeface I fell in love with - and I know it's a cliché - was Helvetica. I always respected it, but steered clear for a long time. Now I tend to overuse it, I think.

    In close second was Cabin.

    Sentinel

    by Jonathan Ogden

    One of the first fonts I fell in love with. I remember spotting Sentinel in a couple of designs and drooling over it. I then went hunting it down like a mad man. I was trying to google things like 'Big slab serif font' and it wasn't bringing anything like it up. I eventually found it and used it on pretty much every design for the next couple of months. I'm not quite as obsessed now, but I still love it.

    p.s. pardon the very poor pun, but I had to find something with a lowercase 'c' in it. Tis a thing of a beauty!

    Avant Garde

    by Andrew Baumgartner

    When I started my life in art school, we had to research a font that was given to us. My teacher chose Herb Lubalin's famous Avant Garde for me. I got hooked real quick, with that snazzy Q & R, and made endless crapshoot pieces with this font.

    Just quelling some rumours. The first font I fell in love with was actually Impact and not Comic Sans.

    I first saw Knockout utilized effectively in this article, and I was blown away by the mood it could create when used appropriately.

    by Jason Krieger

    I remember quite a few years ago when everyone and their mother were starting to go from Arial to Verdana as their go to font on websites. I wanted to be different and I switched it up to Georgia. I loved it so much I wanted to find something similar, but a bit more refined.

    I came across Mrs. Eaves and have been using it on my personal site ever since. Just love it!

    Bold, of course ;)
