Module 1 - Lesson 6

Styling Text

Being able to style and work with the chosen typeface is a much more important skill than being able to choose a good font, and that will be the focus of this lesson. I’ll explain the importance of working with a type scale, using the correct sizing, alignment, and spacing, and ways to establish a visual hierarchy in text-heavy layouts.
