ABOUT







Florian Adler

Legibility expert. His research was reported at ATypI 2018 in Antwerp. He writes: During a two-year R&D project, we worked with people affected by the most common eye disorders and with experts from the German Federation of the Blind and Partially Sighted (DBSV) to evaluate typefaces and layouts in terms of legibility and readability. We found that visually impaired people preferred Humanist Sans typefaces i.e., sans serifs which are based on the Old Style/Garalde letterforms. [...] Using the study results and extensive source research, we produced concrete, practical recommendations on typefaces, sizes, spacing, layout, contrasts and surfaces.
