From Jason Santa Maria and a group of his creative colleagues, Typedia is a handsomely executed, community-based encyclopedia of typefaces. From the ‘About’ page:
We love type, and we have a burning desire to learn as much as possible about typefaces: where they come from, who made them, and why they look the way they do. We want everyone to be able to share in that rich knowledge and enjoy the art and artists of type design. Over time, We think Typedia could grow into a great educational resource for people to learn about their favorite typefaces and discover new ones.
This love for type is further revealed in the blog post detailing the creative process behind the Typedia logo, designed by the masterful John Langdon. The end-result is a stunning, yet understated treatment that is a perfect fit for the site.
