back in march i made a video about typography trends of 2021 and a lot of those typography
trends have been seen throughout this year you know we have things like outline text and
disruptive typography and they've been found all over the design world but what can we expect to
see in the new year in terms of typography trends well let's take a look and see what we've got to
play with and later in today's video you can learn about the awesome design tool that helps
you create sleek modern and nifty websites it's readymag the design tool that's built right into
your browser radio mag is offering you guys the satori viewers a great promotion so learn
more about that later in today's video so after doing a lot of research and with my ear firmly to
the ground it seems there is a huge potential for four specific stars for typography to really take
off in a big way next year the first one being the use of really wide and stretched typography
that kind of appears short in nature this has already started to make an appearance this year
but it really could take a hold in 2022 this style of typography is often created using modern
sans-serif fonts and is presented in uppercase letter forms it works really well with short
phrases or words and it really does come across as modern and trendy there are specific fonts
that carry this style naturally two of which are neutral and also vlanella bold now i don't suggest
that you manually stretch your typography because that kind of distorts the style of the typeface
rather it's best to seek out fonts such as vladnella and nutro if you really want to make
use of this trend the next possible trend to take off is one that is used by designers who work on
magazine covers and that is to obscure the full word or phrase with an object in the foreground
and this is often seen on the title or the name of a magazine and then the model usually hides part
of the lettering with their form however this is now spilling over into the greater design
community and it's becoming a very popular design method this technique often shows that the brand
or the company is recognizable just by the style of the font alone without being able to read the
letters and vogue is a magazine that has done this over and over again throughout history
the technique shows how well an established vogue is because people recognize it without
being able to read the actual words but yeah this is now moving over to the design world as a whole
and something else that designers are utilizing is cutting off parts of the word to the left or
to the right of the design again this is a playful tactic that can create a visually appealing design
the third trend that actually isn't going to be exclusive to next year but likely to many many
years in the future is animated typography now that we have so many design programs that enable
us to make emotion graphics and lots of tech to easily view those graphics on designs are
becoming more and more animated and less static this is also of course true to typography this has
already been shown on my channel when we look at top tier design portfolios that include animated
functions and typography it's a way to show off not only skills as a graphic designer but to
showcase how far technology has advanced in our time when animating typography you should always
aim to include the style of animation that fits the font choice and the message of your design
it is wise to start the time frame with the font on wording already visible as a whole
and then carry out the animation thereafter you want people to read the text at first glance and
then to see the animation but yeah expect to see more and more animated typography as time goes on
the fourth trend that you should look for in 2022 and possibly use on your design work when the time
is right of course is outline typography yes this has been trending this year i did talk about it in
much but it's likely going to carry over into the next year and dominate the graphic design world
it's been seen in adverts on tv tv shows magazines pretty much everywhere
this technique is often done with bold sans-serif fonts and in uppercase letters
designers will pair outline typography with filled typography of the same font and this creates some
contrast and hierarchy yeah it's super easy to do and in the right context it can look awesome
but that is the important thing to consider with every method or technique your research and the
brief should let you know if it's valid or not to be used often your design won't work or function
by using any of these techniques because the brief doesn't align with it imagine an easy to use
drag and drop editor for creating your websites something built directly into your browser
well that's the sponsor of today's video ready mac now it couldn't be easier to use and for someone
like myself who hasn't even bothered to learn code it's a great asset in my design arsenal
you all know how i feel about fonts and typography i really cannot get enough of them
and so when i realized that readymag has an ever growing collection of over 5000 web fonts from
places like typekit web type google and so on i had to take a closer look at this design tool
