Type matters


Typeface: Gill Sans (sans-serif typeface designed by Eric Gill.)

Dynamism through asymmetric layout in a text. Do not center stuff!

Sans serif is for short texts or headings. Where serif is for more longer texts.

Use real quotation marks - easier to understand where a quote starts and ends.

Also numbers have upper case and low case. Low case numbers bled in to text more easily.

Books that are cheap don´t but so much white space around text. But with white space it is easier for the eye to read.
