There are many CSS techniques that come around which ultimately end up being gimmicky — this is not one of them. If implemented appropriately, this method could allow for more creative flexibility, all while using less bandwidth.
An interesting concept, which I really like because of the scaling properties.
This article is intended for an audience of contemporary designers and students who are at least one step removed from mid-century British typographic culture; it is a critique of the Gill Sans typeface and the idiosyncrasies of its creation from a contemporary perspective. The central argument is that an earlier typeface by Eric Gill’s mentor, Edward Johnston, is a superior piece of type design.
There seems to be a lot of loathing for Gill Sans. I’ve been finding other articles of a similar nature which you should find interesting.
Some really interesting reads!
