Blank. Blankety-blank.
Blank. Blankety-blank.
Yikes! Here comes Arial, impersonal, vapid, straight-up-&-down-Arial.
Quick! Get a serif font going! How about Georgia for comfort? Your eyes
want—no, need— a font that allows, even encodes a bit of human style.
Yes, font matters. We grandparents love looking back at our childhood
books with their primary colors and friendly letters—bad mistake to banish familiarity! The Noxious-Grey Stylists have held sway for two decades and
more now, allowing only grey walls, grey floors, grey upholstery, grey cars
& computers, conceding an occasional teal or magenta accent pillow,
breathlessly announcing a new trim choice: Treat Yourself to a Touch of RASPBERRY! [Such daring! However do they contain themselves?]
Maybe the market crash that has led to this recession will require
a campaign of riotess color to pull us out of this Relentless Grey Period?
