I love it when you get your design geek on. I love knowing people in fandom who will obsess about typefaces with me. (:

And I think at last count, I had 3100 fonts installed on my work PC. It's an expensive hobby, alas, since I will usually buy a font/typeface if I can afford it, so to have the pretty legal evrsion.

But I don't really need to eat, right? Not when I can make pretties?

If I worked in a design studio, I'd have that problem. But as an in-house designer, there's a very limited suite of typefaces I'm allowed to use in our materials, so I have almost nothing here at work, font-wise.

Home...is another story. (:

Yay, font geekery! *grins*

I wonder if it's a matter of what fonts were available at the various places they got things (like the chairs) made up at...or if they do this themselves and someone is just, well, not adequately detail-oriented.

This was really interesting to read. Yay for font geekery.
