]]> If you are part of those who believe that nothing beats a night at home, in front of the TV, watching your favourite series episode after episode, then you are in the right place. Just like you, we couldn’t even imagine doing something else after a very long and exhausting day at work. For this reason, we are up to date with the latest Netflix series and, as you might expect, with the tv show fonts they are using for their titles. Check out 4 of our favourite Netflix series and their fonts.

Stranger Things

One of our ultimate favourite TV shows is Stranger Things. It’s a sci-fi story that starts with the disappearance of a little boy and the struggle of a small town to uncover secret experiments and supernatural happenings. You’ll fall in love with Eleven – Elv for friends – in the blink of an eye and you’ll gasp at every tensed scene. Also, for the most curious fellas out there, the name of this TV show font is Benguiat Bold.

P.S. Stay tuned! The third season will be available on the 4th of July and we can’t be more excited than this.

Jessica Jones

We all love Marvel and we watched the final Avengers movie with the same enthusiasm we had when we were waiting for Santa. With this is mind, Marvel TV shows could definitely become our cup of sea. Action, badass superheroes and even more action. Like, what’s not to like? This TV series follows the story of former superhero Jessica Jones, who tries to get back in the business as a private investigator. All in all, the closest match for this tv show font is Gothic 13!

Mad Men

Advertising is fabulous. Most compelling evidence, the life of the early advertisers, commonly known as the Mad Men from Madison Avenue, is the subject of a captivating TV show. Every aficionado of advertising will fall in love with the life and work of Don Draper. Just hit the play button and enjoy all the seven seasons. Furthermore, find out that amongst all the TV show fonts, Mad Men is one example of good Helvetica in use. The font’s name is Helvetica Neue Heavy.

House of cards

The world of politics is hard and this TV show manages to point that out just right. House of Cards follows the story of Frank Underwood and his wife, Claire, in their search for revenge. Even if you’re not a huge fan of politics, you might want to consider watching this show just for Kevin Spacey’s character. In this case, the font is called Bourgeois Bold Condensed.

And because we couldn’t help our font related curiosity, we searched for these 5 restaurants’ fonts. Check them out down below!

Barrafina

From where we’re standing, Reforma Grotesque Medium looks like a pretty close match. Simple, tall and modern, this font is a keeper.

Bao Fitzrovia

Bold and all caps, Folio Medium font is quite the right choice for an asian restaurant. It has a certain vibe to it that we love and that inspires us.

Clipstone

Our closest match for Clipstone, one of London’s minimalist looking places, is the Vicky Ultralight font. Clean and modern, you better add this font to your shortlist!

Honey & Co.

Honey & Co. has a very cool and young vibe to it. We can partly owe that to the font choice. Urania_Piccola_II font looks retro, yet very trendy. It kind of remind us of the stamp looking font we previously talked about here.

KILN

It surely stands out and without a doubt this is due to its boldness and uppercase letters. KILN used Poligon Black font for its name and we think it’s a right choice for this friendly looking font.

If ever curious about fonts that surround you, whether it’s a shop or restaurant, take a picture and upload it on WhatFontIs.com. Without any doubt, you’ll find plenty of similar fonts on our website that you can further use for your own creative projects.

]]> Combining fonts can be, without any doubt, one of the most difficult things you’ll ever have to do as a creative person. To simply guess some appropriate UI font combinations is unlikely possible. It’s a known fact that not every font goes hand in hand with any other font you find. And, as you might’ve been expecting, you’ll have to take into account lots of different aspects when mixing & matching typefaces.

We’re talking serif and sans serif fonts, stressed letters, body height, glyph width, contrast, apertures, counters. All these elements we previously mentioned in all those typographic principles are aspects that can and will influence how well a font matches one another.

Nowadays, trends have moved our attention towards more and more minimalist fonts, predominantly lacking serifs. Stable, consistent and optimized for all mediums, they might differ from those fonts that are used for branding. But we’ve got good news! We found 7 font combinations that will definitely improve the look of the user interface you are working.

Playfair Display – Source Sans Pro

Playfair Display font
Source Sans Pro font

This font combination looks so good, it’s like they we’re made for each other.

Merriweather – Oswald

Without any doubt, these two fonts really seem to complete one another.

Montserrat – Merriweather

It’s a known fact that Montserrat is one of the most loved fonts out there. And this combination surely has a newspaper vibe to it, right?

Raleway – Lato

Where do you see yourself using this one? We think it will be suitable for presentations because both fonts are pretty easy to read.

Elsie – Roboto

Elsie font

By far, this is the most glamorous font combination. And, if we were to really think about it, Elsie looks like a Didone inspired font.

Abril Fatface – Roboto

At our second encounter, Roboto might seem like a really popular font.

Sansita – Open Sans

Finally and without a doubt, this font combination stands for a very popular saying: opposites attract each other.
