  ...a lovely typeface.

  I'm starting on a new brand for a high end fashion photographer who is opening a new studio and I need a typeface - as the entire brand will be built upon it. No photos or graphics allowed!

  Any suggestions?? Am open to either a sans or a serif.

  I'm messing around with the Gotham family at the moment, and also looking at National by Klim...

  We have lots of budget to burn, so what ever the cost - it should't be an issue :)

  i can reccommend national - its really nice to work with and has sooo many weights and alternatives.

  • National is pretty, but I would always prefer Akkurat– moamoa

  So I guess I'm the only one that thinks classic didot feels alot more "fashion" and exclusive than a minimal sans serif?

  I would go with a really high contrast and difference in stroke weights like:
  

  

  But hey. That's me and I guess I'm getting old.

  Other than that I still like Foundry Sterling.
