A Better Alternative To Lorem Ipsum For Prototyping & Wireframing

in #design6 years ago

I absolutely despise Lorem Ipsum. Besides the fact that it makes no sense whatsoever and is intentionally gibberish text, it's a pain to add to designs (unless you use a plugin or inbuilt generation). Even more painful to get it to actually look right as well.

I discovered BloKK Font about 13 months ago when tasked with prototyping a new UI at my day job. I wanted something intentionally lo-fi, but still visually perceivable as text.

Previously I would have defaulted to Lorem Ipsum text or vector shapes, but it's so time-consuming that you end up worrying about hanging orphans and weird kerning on the text (the kind of things you should worry about during actual development)/

All you have to do is download and install the font to your machine, then choose the font in your desired design program or HTML prototype.

BLOKK is a life-changing addition to your prototyping and wireframing workflow and best of all, it's completely free.
