How to use typography in a home design

Typography is a fun and versatile way to inject a bit of personality into a home interior, whether that’s in the bathroom, the kitchen, the lounge, or the bedroom. Houzz has put together some tips about using typography to suit and reflect your character, making your home just right.

The great thing about typography is that it can be completely unique, from neon lights to vintage pieces. Neon words would look perfect in a modern interior with sleek lines and a simple colour scheme, or would add a touch of kitsch to a knowingly retro scheme (we’re thinking pop art and bubble chairs).

Vintage pieces not only reflect your own personality, but they also bring their own sense of history to a place, so choose a piece that can take pride of place in a room. We love the mottled iron letters in the design pictured, which complement the other stand-out objects in the white bedroom.

Other fantastic ideas include spelling out hobbies for children’s rooms, covering a feature wall with an alphabet collage, and personalising a bedroom with a simple, single letter.
