40 New Free Fonts for Designer’s Needs [Year 2011]

There have been hundreds of free fonts created this year, but we have surprisingly few good fonts that can be used for designer’s purposes. Do you want to get a font that will be most effective in your web environment? We are here to show you them. Remember however that font will dictate how the bodies of text will appear throughout your website. Choosing the font for your project you need to keep the overall layout of your website in mind. Pick a font that works well in site’s visual flow, and as letters are images themselves you should therefore consider font’s weight, style, kerning, and letter-spacing. It can actually make a huge difference between the web page that captivates with its content and one that turns visitors away because of a horrible readability (check out one of our previous posts demonstrating the true power of a proper font in an actual website design). So put thought into your font choice, go through our compilation of 40 new fonts available for free download online. Chances are you will use one of the compelling free fonts from this list.

Written by Lilian Rigo

It all started as a joke and a bit of a challenge. But then somewhere along the line I realized that being involved in copy-writing is too good to pass up. Big love for analyzing was a certain slide to where I am now. To pick up every tidbit of info, meditate on words literariness, and then pour it all in a decent form - that is the essence of my current work being. Overall, I see the web as a Klondike of art, music, and literature... it's all there. Maybe someday, I'll brave more than just copy-writing. We'll see. on Google+.

      Excellent. Thank you. You might like to know about a book being read on BBC Radio 4 this week (available internationally on the BBC iPlayer) of Simon Garfield’s book about fonts “Just My Type” .

      Radio 4 says, ‘From type on the high street and book covers, to the print in our
      homes and offices, our world is surrounded by and spelt out by fonts.
      Little do we realise how our everyday choices are subtly informed and
      manipulated by these miniature works of art. Simon Garfield explores the
      history of the font and the people who brought them into being.

      How Eric Spiekermann – a legend in the world of graphic design –
      changed the face of the German type face – and how the Nazis exploited
      the font to their own ends.’

      This is one of your best columns, Lilian. Well done. I’ve downloaded Tall Boy by Christopher Hampshire, and I’m using it on a New Zealand website which I help edit (long distance from London) – villagepress dot co dot nz It was perfect timing to have this font column appear in the same week that BBC Radio 4 serialised a really good book on fonts.
