Tabrizi Jali is the first type revival based on the early Persian Naskh types of Iranian presses from the nineteenth century. It is a product of several years of extensive research into the history of printing and typefounding, and practical experiments. Thus, it is a great pleasure to announce its release on the first day of spring and the Persian New Year (Nowruz), the 20th of March, 2023. A year that also marks 200 years since the publication of the earliest known Persian book in Tehran.

A quick heads up about a great new release from Huy!Fonts. Rotulo is a huge new sans serif family that comes in 90, yes ninety styles. If you prefer varaible fonts, then this is your lucky day because Rotulo also comes in a single variable font with all three axes — width, weight, and slant — baked in.

Expressive script fonts are a great way to introduce some energy into your designs. They can be use in standalone words as logos, for packaging, and in editorial design. They're also a great way to change pace as part of a system of typographic hierarchy, as headers or subheads. Here are 3 of our favorite expressive script fonts to get you started.

A brief post today to introduce you to three quality free fonts. There are plenty of poor quality free fonts out there. Some are missing important characters, others are just poorly drawn, or are bastardized versions of popular font families. But some $0 fonts are great quality and make welcome additions to anyone’s font library. […]

Typefaces for editorial design need to be expansive enough to support complex typographic hierarchies. They need to be readable (people read magazines & blogs) — but they also need to fulfill roles as titles, captions, pull quotes, drop caps, etc.

Sisteron, from the brilliant folk at Beasts of England Foundry, achieves a delicate and beautiful balance between stellar and stupendous. From vintage outer-space to Art Nouveau and Jugendstil, Sisteron is a typeface that evokes the ’20s, ’70s, and the 21st century.
