“The challenge of making decorative display letters is how to maintain legibility and readability while considering the aesthetic value/decorative side. The message must be conveyed well so that the audience not only reads the text but also enjoys the aesthetic/decorative aspect of the typography.”...
“The main challenge for me is always the same, whether with typography or design in general, and that is to find the solution that I think is most appropriate for each project. On the other hand, there is the technical resolution, which is sometimes complicated, but the main challenge is to know what you want to do/transmit in each project....
“Always prioritize contrast. When working with two or more typefaces, aim to choose one with a distinct personality and another that complements it. By using one typeface for emphasis and another for supporting text, you’ll ensure your message remains clear and engaging.”...
“In our display projects, our main challenge is keeping up with the ever-evolving typographic trends in today’s fast-paced markets.

“The most difficult thing to do when designing display fonts is to keep all the characters of the alphabet in the same compositional and plastic style. I am talking now about fonts with a new approach to typographic form (not about any kind of brush scripts).”...
“Decorative and display typefaces have a unique personality that can be emphasized through pairing them with a project. Whether it’s a decorative terminal or crazy ligature, these fonts can either shine or fall down depending on their context.”...
“The challenge is always to balance the weight of all the letters and make those letters a part of a full font. This is mostly related to the fact that the typefaces are strange and the letters are pretty crazy, so to make them all live in harmony is hard, but it’s also the fun part! Nowadays I also think...
“Pairing strategies can be quite diverse, depending on what you’re trying to solve. The pairing might be done to establish distinction between elements, to indicate different notations, to make two typefaces feel the same at different scales, or for textural variety. All these require different approaches. And always test print.”...
“When choosing fonts, the designer should consider what kind of product they are designing and for what audience. This is true not only for fonts, but also for illustration, when choosing colours and design in general. When combining fonts, I advise you to choose one that is accentuated and decorative to attract attention, and the second neutral, easy to read...
