Modern Free Fonts to Download
Let’s face it, we need free fonts for our projects. Many of us are freelancers and we just can’t afford to buy font families at $150+ each. Thank goodness for free assets and designers that like to make a name for themselves by creating and providing free fonts for us to download. With that being said, my focus on free fonts this week is on modern fonts. Use these fonts to give your designs a modern feel while being elegant and completely legible. Here are 5 highly quality modern free fonts.
Bariol
Clean, rounded and excellent, this font is suitable for a myriad of different design applications. I love the use of the thick and thin weights. 2 styles are free, and you can pick up all 4 pretty cheap (I picked up all 4).
Infinity
Infinity is another thin, elegant modern font that is fresh, sophisticated and just screams technology. I liked this font so much, I built my design studio’s new identity from it.
Hammer
Hammer is a really cool modern slab serif font that makes you instantly think tech. I love the slash in the zero, which makes it easy to identify when someone is using the letter O and the number zero. I hate when a typeface makes it difficult to tell the difference!
V.Ger Grotesque
With different weights and the bent edges, this font is ultra modern, while still being easy to read. It has its own unique twist, which instantly makes it recognizable.
Blanch
No, not Blanch from the Golden Girls, but it is the thick and thin font family that even has an inline edition. This gives you the added bonus of having extra variations to your typefaces.
Conclusion
These modern free fonts are excellent to use for many different types of projects. Some are better suited for technological applications, but a couple can really create some interesting typographic work. With clean lines and rounded corners, they are friendly and fun, while not losing their legibility. Which of these modern free fonts are your favorite?
