Get our posts emailed to you with our monthly newsletter, subscribe here. Using the correct typeface for your design project is absolutely crucial in conveying the message and feel of the overall design, it is necessary to keep an awesome collection of both paid and free fonts in your font collection to allow you to have the font resources at hand to test drive a design with varying fonts. I have taken three of my favorite font foundries and showcased 29 of the most beautiful fonts from their collections, the quality of these fonts is pretty amazing, some are more suited to print work and others for use on the web as they support the @font-face property. Lost Type Co-op Lost Type Co-op is an indispensable one of a kind type foundry, founded by Riley Cran and Tyler Galpin. You can download the fonts for free if you want but, if you have a heart then you can specify the amount you wish to send to the type designer.

Fonts! Chank’s Free Font Graveyard (formerly known as "Chank's Free Font Archive") is a gallery of historic experimental and fun fonts that were once offered freely on the world wide web and now have been retired from distribution. These designs were created by designers from all over the world as a celebration of the joy of playful typography and the spirit of getting fun new fonts into the world to push the boundaries of modern font design. Some were stunning and some just stumbled, but all of these fonts were created with love, enhanced with real human spirit, and distributed freely on this website for many years. But now they have been retired and pulled from circulation. If you downloaded any of these fonts for your own personal recreational or small business use, feel free to keep using them and installing them on your new computers. If you enjoy these fonts, please join our mailing list to be notified about future font releases. Like free fonts?
