Pinterest is a great source of inspiration these days, especially for web or graphic designers. One of the biggest and most commonly updated genres is design, and a favorite of mine that takes up a lot of my time is typography. There is just something so fun about fonts, especially the more creative forms that have popped up since the Internet went mainstream.
If you know what I am talking about and would love to know where to see the best typography on Pinterest, check out these 10 designers and their boards.
Igor Ovsyannykov
This guy won me over when I saw his Harry Potter tribute and 404 design boards. It wasn’t until later that I saw his typography board, which I found (almost) just as awesome. There are more than 300 pins, and he has more unique samples than many other boards.

Jeff Andrews
Oregon-based designer Jeff Andrews has a varied and well-used Pinterest board that shows both his work and his inspiration. His typography board is one of his largest, and he has some really fantastic modern designs. Some of them are product fonts, but most appear to be website or logo specific – and very cool.

Mike Jones
I love the fonts on his Good Type board, but I also love his other boards that feature creative typography as part of larger designs. There are a few I have never seen before, which is saying something, considering my obsession with text design.

Dan Denney
I usually go to this guy for his packaging designs. But I would be seriously remiss if I didn’t mention his huge and really cool Typography and Font Love board. I like that he doesn’t stick to a particular style and, instead, has an eclectic selection.

Hrvoje Grubisic
Even though it is small, this is one of my favorite boards on Pinterest. Every bit of typography is vintage, with bottles, posters and stamps, among others. They are genuine rather than reproduction typography designs, which makes it special.

Russ Burtner
More on the trendy and edgy style of things, there are some great fonts on the Typography board here, especially in black and white. If you want something really modern, this is one inspiring board.

Paula Cevasco
This is mostly web and mobile web design pictures. But some really cool fonts are scattered here and there. Others are shown on the site designs themselves, and it is worth checking it out.

Niki Blaker
This is another one of my favorite boards, and all the fonts are quality. Every single one is creative, well made, cool and fun. Some are even odd. I follow this one and always look forward to a new piece being put up.

Steve Kamn
Every pin is pretty cool, especially the “metal work” fonts. Since he has a good eye, I am hoping he posts more pretty soon.

Maria Fidalgo
This is one of the best collections of more than 200 pins. I especially love the horror and science-fiction fonts that are found here, though there are many other genres, as well.
