font, is the art of the ensemble
By its very nature, font is the art of the ensemble. We always view and judge it not alone, but rather by the sum of its parts."
"Townscape may be best described as the urban equivalent of landscape, and relates to all settlements, regardless of their size. It focuses on what is perceived by the observer and has been defined as the “art of the ensemble” or the “art of relationship”, weaving the elements together, the elements being essentially the street patterns, spaces, built scale, building character, skylines and views."
"Seeking exceptional actors, improvisers, and emcees who understand the art of the ensemble."

: I would drop the 1st "the". Otherwise there is an implication of "font" being the ONLY art of the ensemble. Also, I'd say "fonts are"//Not quite. I'd recommend "fonts are art" or "font creation is art" (no article at all)

: "A font..., is an art of harmony" sounds a little off. What do you think about "Font,...., is the art of harmony?" And what would you suggest for the next sentence? Just curious.
