Typography is defined as the art of arranging text based on size, color, font, and spacing. Still, there is a nicer and simpler definition. Typography is the result of blending art with writing. It all started in the mid-15th century when a smart man named Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing machine. This is when the production and duplication of typographies began. Back then it was all about creating readable and engaging texts for readers.

Now, things got way beyond sending a readable message in an interesting way. Typography is very important in the creation of posters and images meant to transmit emotion consistent with the artist’s thought, to induce a certain state of mind, and to ultimately inspire them to take action.

They say images are worth a thousand words, but what if you combine text and imagery? In this case, the message is much more accurate and has a bigger impact on the audience. Posters are of great use in publicity and advertising. They are particularly important for content you want to share on social networks like Facebook or Pinterest. People will share and like your post if they can relate to it in some way. Make sure to do that and your post will turn viral.

Anyway, we talked enough. It is now time to actually see what lettering can do when it comes to sending a message. Here are 25 inspirational typography posters that are amazing and suggestive through the way letters are arranged on page. The font, size, color, and spacing blend together to take you beyond contextual comprehension.
