Blog Designs with Killer Typography

June 30, 2020 by Mike Smith 40 Comments

A killer design is one thing – but one that also uses the right typography is (in my opinion) on a whole other level compared to those that just ‘look pretty‘. Typography is needed with blog designs because, well, the blog is built to speak your mind, right? So, if your blog isn’t readable then it fails to do its job.

So today I’m going to show you awesome blog designs that have killer typography and also do a well-rounded job of making things look nice and also making things readable. I hope you enjoy the inspiration.

    I’d have to say Brian Hoff’s is my favorite on this list. He has so much delicious whitespace that it makes even his relatively small type effective. The colors are great, too, it’s rare to see a clean site with nice color rather than just white.

    BTW: Melody’s site is also rockin ! [ Kudos @Melody – great site you got there ! ]

    And where is the explanation of “Why is this site in category of great typography designs?”? Although I like the list style posts and blogs I’m disappointed when I see no explanations or descriptions at all. I think it would be OK to drop at least a line about every design. And to be honest with you to me typography on all of sites is almost the same, although I did have find some interesting designs on list.

    Nice collection of sites. I think getting the balance between a mixture of serif and sans serif fonts on a website can really make an impact on the design.

    I have learned some essential things through your site post. One other thing I would like to convey is that there are many games on the market designed specifically for toddler age kids. They involve pattern acceptance, colors, family pets, and styles. These normally focus on familiarization as opposed to memorization. This helps to keep little children occupied without feeling like they are learning. Thanks

    Howdy would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with? I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique. P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
