If Fonts Could Talk… What Would Yours Say?
Fonts do more than fill space—they speak. Loudly.
In fact, research by MIT found that fonts can influence trust, readability, and even mood. So, what vibe is your brand giving off?
Let’s decode 5 fonts that famous brands swear by—and what they’d say if they walked into a meeting:
💬 Helvetica – The Cool Minimalist
Used by: Apple, BMW, Panasonic
Says: “I’m clean, crisp, and confident. I don’t need flair to make a point.”
(Very type-A but never showy.)
💬 Garamond – The Elegant Traditionalist
Used by: Abercrombie & Fitch, National Geographic
Says: “I’ve read every classic and still write with a fountain pen.”
(Old soul energy, in a good way.)
💬 Futura – The Bold Visionary
Used by: Nike, Red Bull, IKEA
Says: “Why follow trends when you can start them?”
(Fast-talking, forward-thinking.)
💬 Baskerville – The Polished Professional
Used by: Rolex, The New Yorker
Says: “I never miss a deadline and always colour-code my calendar.”
(Serious but stylish.)
💬 Comic Sans – The Friendly Rebel
Used by: …nobody willingly, but still kicks around in classrooms.
Says: “Don’t take life too seriously. Or me, apparently.”
(Love it or hate it, you remember it.)
🧐 Your font says a lot before anyone reads a word. Is yours aligned with your brand personality, or just a default choice from 2012?
