Typography dating game finds your ideal 'type'

type dating game — Will you be dating your preferred typeface?

You've witnessed typography as art, typography murals and more but have you ever thought about how typography would sound or taste like? Sarah Hyndman is conducting the Human Experiment type tasting surveys, that will see you discover which types you'd date, what they'd taste like and what they'd sound like.

"I’m curious about psychology and typefaces, the effect they have on us beyond the purely functional. I’ve created a series of surveys, interactive games and interviews. These explore how we all respond to typefaces, how they stimulate different senses, trigger memories and what different personalities they have." What will your 'type' be?

Will you be taking part in this experiment? Let us know in the comments box below!
