Learn to pair any font in 15 minutes!

Welcome to my concise, no fluff class on the art of font pairing! In the broad world of design, there are a few things that are truly universal. One of those things is conveying information with text. And even before information is conveyed with body text, we often look at display text to get a feel for what we’re about to read or watch. 


With that said, it’s important to understand how we can convey that information in a way that is appropriate, easy to understand, and aesthetically sound. The purpose of this class will be to cover all three of those necessities so that everyone can have a better understanding of how font pairing works. 


This class will teach you how to pair any font, no matter what you're designing! You'll also receive my Font Pairing Cheat Sheet, as well as my list of Free Fonts Online.
