1. Helvetica Neue - Ultra Light


Every good and perfect thing comes from above. 
I believe that God allows every thing to happen for a marvelous reason. And I also believe that He desires the best for me. Even when I sin, He has the power, the authority, and the LOVE to take my mess and turn it around and make me beautiful.
That's AMAZING.

Ok.  Here's an idea.
Last night I had the privilege to hear Kit Hinrichs speak.
(If you don't know him, you should. He's an insightful guy and an incredible designer, not to mention the founder of the world-renowned Studio Hinrichs in San Fran.)

"A designer tends to use 10 fonts 90 percent of the time."

What are my ten fonts?
I'm not sure.  I'm still a design baby.
But I came up with an idea of how to identify my 10 go-to's.

Every day for the next 10 days, I'm going to create a simple poster design, using my 10 go-to's, illustrating the truth that God is impressing on my heart at that time. I feel like God has been teaching me so many valuable things lately, I want to document them in a way that involves my love of typography!
This will be fun.

Today is #1.
And I'm using Helvetica Neue - Ultra Light.
And I'm remembering that God makes ALL things work together 
(for MY good!)

  1. I loooove Helvectia Neue Ultra light, definitely on my ten. I may or may not have bought a book on type today just because of what Kit said.
