Variable Font tech was announced 10 years ago. So where the heck are we right now?!

I’m doing three weeks of interviews starting in April to gather real-world feedback on the state of variable fonts and the future of the technology.

I'm looking for type designers, web designers, and graphic designers for 30-minute conversations. No prep needed, just your honest experience — including critical or skeptical takes.

Full disclosure: this is part of a paid research project with Font Bureau (David Berlow, not Monotype), but no one has control over the outcomes.

Results will be published with credit and attribution (unless you prefer to remain anonymous). I can’t pay you for your time, but you’ll have my everlasting thanks.

ESPECIALLY IF YOU’RE A WEB OR GRAPHIC DESIGNER, I would really appreciate your time to share your thoughts.

I have limited slots, so please share this around and book a time here: https://typeadvisor.com/vf-interviews.html

I’ve had fantastic response so far for my request for interviews, but I especially need GRAPHIC DESIGNERS to sign up!

I know there are more web and type nerds on Masto, but if you’re a designer (even if you know little about VFs) I want your perspective and thoughts and would greatly appreciate your time.

@onpaperwings I’m a graphic designer transitioning to type designer but I’d love to chat if you need a perspective. I have opinions!
@jesserewing Yes! Please sign up for a slot.
