How do you match fonts and colors to your brand identity?
Unfortunately, the old saying that serif fonts are elegant and sans serif fonts are friendly just isn't true all the time. Many serif fonts are far more friendly and inviting to readers than sans serif fonts. Ultimately, font "feeling" is highly subjective. This is especially true when thinking about which fonts are most "accessible" (easy to read for the largest number of people). Scientific tests have shown that the same font will be easier for some people and harder for others. Even fonts that purport to be excellent for dyslexia or other visual challenges typically aren't. Generally, the most "accessible" font is the one that the reader is most accustomed to seeing.
