Selecting the typeface best suited to a project is a constant challenge for designers. In collaboration with professionals at the School of St.Martin, Art Center Pasadena, Rhode Island School of Design, Basel, and Yale Design School, the editors of "30 Essential Typefaces for a Lifetime"(themselves designers) define thirty of the most versatile and classic typefaces for all design needs and occasions.
