Typefaces, Get Your Free Typefaces Here!!!

The creation of a typeface is not an easy feat to accomplish. It’s for this reason that I’m grateful for all the talented designers out there who give their creations away in hopes that we will use them and be inspired. Thanks to all the designers who worked hard on the typefaces in this roundup! Enjoy!

Birra Stout

A lovely chunk slab serif from Darden Studio.

Ripe

A Geometric Postmodern slab seriffed face. The serifs feature simplistic rounded terminals and its stroke is uniform.

Metro

A futuristic looking typeface by Alexey Maslov (maslov.tv)

Tiza

Tiza is a font developed as a means of learning Font design software. It is inspired on the lovely slab-serif Giza . It has been recently used on the website for the Teen Choice Awards 2008… “like,OMG!”

Chunk

Chunk is an ultra-bold slab serif typeface that is reminiscent of old American Western woodcuts, broadsides, and newspaper headlines. Used mainly for display, the fat block lettering is unreserved yet refined for contemporary use.

Flamina

Flaminia is a 2008 opensource project started as a Master Degree Thesis by Andrea Bergamini, an Italian graphic designer annoyed by the chaotic and poorly designed road signage system in his country.

Junction

Inspired by my favorite humanist sans serif typefaces, such as Meta, Myriad, and Scala, Junction is where the best qualities of serif and sans serif typefaces come together. It has the hand drawn and human qualities of a serif, and still retains the clarity and efficiencies of a sans serif typeface. It combines the best of both worlds.

Sniglet

A rounded display face that’s great for headlines. It includes an almost full MacRoman/WinANSI character set.

Quicksand

A nice rounded sans serif

Chocobot

An interesting experiment in display type. This typeface almost hurts my eyes, and yet its intriguing.

Kunchey

Kunchey is elegant and modern at the same time; geometric, but with a subtle calligraphic twist.

Elspeth

Elspeth is a slab serif with a contemporary touch.

Freaktur

Freaktur is an amazing and detailed gothic font made with fontstruct.

Sketchy

Another sketchy/hand done font with a twist: this was made with fontstruct. Not sure how the creator got all the detail in there!

Foldstruct

Foldstruct is a 3d typeface based on Inbetween
