Typographers tend to make great web designers. I’m not sure if it’s the knowledge of type, the grid work, the tendency toward minimalism, or the technical savvy of many typographers. But whatever it is, Type Together are typographers with a slamming website.

Some notable features of the Type Together website are:

1. Open layout
2. Well spaced stability lines
3. Numerous column variations
4. Soft color scheme with typographic contrast
5. Strategic placement of oversize type
6. Perfect balance of filled space and empty space
7. Impeccable font work

Type Together has done a great job of insterspercing different categories of content. It’s quite a mish-mash. Items of featured content, messaging, navigation, and news all compete for attention. Distractions and non-linear possibilities abound. Yet the order and hierarchy is clear.

TT has done a great job of blending the best aspects of showcase-oriented marketing design with the time-sensitive nature of content-driven publishing. At the core of this blend is a robust and flexible grid that gives TT all the necessary options to create a compelling experience.
