Who doesn’t love fonts that stand out and are anything but the norm? Fess up – you’ve made a headline or title in a Word document stand out with wildly creative fonts, only to change those title fonts back to something basic for the sake of legibility. The other day, we saw a meme that said: Be Bold or Italic but Never Regular. Because who really wants to be regular in graphic design??
Font specification can make or break a design. Although sometimes challenging, searching for the perfect font and treatment can also be a lot of fun! When working with a customer’s brand, consistent font use is a critical foundation, even across different mediums. However, occasionally using a font outside of your customer’s style for a headline here or a call out there can be refreshing and attract the desired attention for a new design piece.
We wanted to share a few of our favorite fonts from Just Flow design projects over the last year as well as a few that we just plain love. Some of these are available for free and some come with our monthly Adobe subscription. Links to the free fonts are listed below for your convenience. Send us a message if you have an Adobe subscription and have trouble finding the others.
Pro Tip: Generally font designers will allow free downloads for a portion of their font family as a way to encourage you to purchase the whole font family. Sometimes this works in your favor, sometimes not.
If you are considering a corporate branding or developing a new promotional piece, we would love to hear from you! Our team offers extensive experience in corporate brand development, as well as print and digital marketing and advertising.
