What a great idea from Jessica Hische, to craft some nice looking capital letters for use in blog posts. As a mainly print designer, I do love when we can bring some print design elements to web, since web is still very limited when it comes to editorial design, text design, etc. This innitiave is very good to help people think a bit further when it comes to webdesign. I see that, each day, good webdesigners push HTML and CCS farther and farther, but we are still centuries behind good old print, when it comes to type, and designing text, with the flexibily and agility needed for the industry.
In the specific case of these capital letters, I personally don’t like the style of them, that’s a matter of taste, cause we all can see that they have high quality. Maybe I will absorb the idea, and create some of my own. Thank you Jessica, for the great idea you came up with.
