I have always been interested in Typography. When I see a good example of Typography, I just wonder why my designs don’t showcase that amazing element. Whether it’s spacing, font choice, position, kerning, I just can’t seem to get that look. I am always looking for designs that showcase amazing typography, below are 50+ examples of what I have found inspiring in my quest to achieve typography greatness.

I enjoyed this post. Very inspirational. Check out some of our designs http://www.ardis-creative.com/blog
Sweet examples, but could you link back to the sources of the original pieces/designers? I’d like to check out their other work.
No House Industries? I love their fonts and they have great examples of excellent typography on their site.
Great blog btw! (found via Stumble)
Love these examples, especially the ‘FunKrush-clothing’ piece; really striking and bold. I agree though, trying to achieve an ‘amazing element’ to artwork is always difficult. I find looking at other people’s work is great for inspiration. Trying to achieve what you envision is a different matter however!
Keep posting more examples, would love to see more.
The problem with many of these designs is that the art obscures the message – the text becomes unreadable. This reminds me of the 80s when I was on the Commodore 64 and Amiga designing scroller demos for a demo-crew. Over time, the text scrollers became more and more elaborate, showing off innovative graphics and coding effects. We had scrollers bouncing, then waving and rippling, then wrapping themselves around helical tubes, and finally twisting and distorting in so many ways the text became illegible. The only way to read it was to hack into memory and read the text with a hex editor!
To my way of thinking, the most effective typographic art is that which is easy to read while catching the eye with something unique. Pics 2 and 27 above appeal to me for this reason: 2 with its 3D text and 27 with the words “Graphic Design” still clearly legible while having an eye-grabbing pattern.
I love it!
really sweet designs.

Oh I LOOOVED this post. Thank you!
Wonderful and inspirational. Very graphic display of language…especially the jumbled and cut up words “because my tongue still misbehaves”. Well done.

Like your article but I’m not sure they are great examples of type on the web… mostly look like throw backs to work already done in print. I believe we are only at the beginning of what type can do on the web. Only when creative typography is freed from the evil photoshop will it really come into it’s own online. I want CSS to give us full control over typography – fonts, sizes, angles, effects, backgrounds etc The way flash does but accessible and fully compatible … I could go on. I think we are at about 1910 in comparison to the Pioneers of Modern Typography who essentially invents graphic design.
