Typefaces are the clothes words wear.
The accompanying image challenges this analogy. This analogy creates an alternative perception of the function of a typeface. The poster however demonstrates how I feel about a typeface.
It's more of a body type than an optional item like clothing. Bodies come in all shapes and sizes but essentially we all have the same parts. This is how a typeface is as well, they come in all different types of variants, some are serifs some are sans serifs but essentially they all have the same basic elements.
