What if you want something that’s part of a raising typographic trend – a typeface that will ensure that your graphic or interactive designs are fresh, stylish and hip? Read on. Even with what seems like hundreds of new typefaces being released on a daily basis, the hippest new designs fall into five categories: - Geometric Sans - Swashes & Alternative Characters - Soft Fonts & Friendly Faces - Inlined, Engraved and Delightful - Square Sans Geometric Sans [Noah]( Noah $299.00 | $89.70 | 72 fonts [Campton]( Campton $250.00 | $125.00 | 18 fonts [Codec Pro]( Codec Pro $175.00 | $29.75 | 22 fonts [Gilroy]( Gilroy $180.00 | 20 fonts [Proxima Nova]( Proxima Nova $734.00 | 144 fonts No frills geometric sans have been trending for some time – and for good reason. They speak with clarity and authority. Many also benefit from a wide and deep range of weights and proportions making them ideal for everything from wordmarks and branding to headlines and signage. Minimalism is personified in designs like Gilroy, Biennale and Codec Pro. While others, like Campton, are softened with a subtle calligraphic influence. This calligraphic undertone is even stronger in designs like Noah and Proxima Nova. Thanks to their large x-heights, open counters and simple character shapes, these designs enable companies and products to seamlessly express their brand everywhere an audience can engage with it, including websites, advertisements, corporate messaging, packaging – and more.
