I Mean Business. Says Who?

GOOGLE FONTS / A STUDY OF CLASSIFICATION, PERCEPTION, APPLICATION, & JUDGEMENTYVETTE SHEN / 2026 · ABOUT

Somewhere, someone decided which typefaces feel “businesslike.” Google Fonts gives that judgment a score. But what does the number tell us, and what does it leave out?

Using Google Fonts as a case study, this site follows the “Business” label from the collection to the letterforms, tests it in context, and explores the judgment involved in choosing a typeface.
