Font Resources for Web and Graphic Designers

Atipo provides a wide range of font designs, ranging from the classy Calendas Plus font, to the modernist family Basier and Basier Mono. They offer many (all?) on a "pay what you want" model, making them highly accessible.

Brethren Design Co is a branding studio based out of Tulsa, Oklahoma. They have a killer selection of fonts that would be perfect for branding and graphic design projects, at very affordable prices.

Dalton Maag's most known typeface is arguably Aktiv Grotesk, but they have a wide array of other sans in their collection as well. They also have a selection of quirky or non-traditional display fonts for sale.

Dinamo is a really fun foundry based in Berlin. Their store features a diverse array of trendy and experimental fonts that would be great for new DTC and CPG brands that want to engage a younger demographic.

F37 is one of my favorite foundries on the list (and not just because they sent me a bunch of goodies with my book order). From trend-aware modern designs, to a Caslon reproduction, they execute at a high level of quality, with reasonable prices.

Fontshare, based in India, is my go-to resource for free fonts. They host a wide array of free and/or open source fonts, with a beautiful interface to boot. It's where I found Satoshi, my primary brand font! They also have a sister site, Fontstore, where they feature paid fonts for more bespoke or premium projects.

Fontstore is Fontshare's sister site, featuring a huge variety of high quality, multi-language typefaces. They also boast a unique licensing model, making license transfers easy and even letting you resell your font licenses. They also offer reward points redeemable for discounts on future purchases.

Grilli Type (of GT America fame) is a trend-forward foundry that produces some fantastic sans. Browsing their other selections, I realize they product some beatiful serif faces as well.

Hanken offers fonts in a wide array of styles, from techy sans to highly stylized display faces perfect for brand identities.

Klim (based out of New Zealand) is another one of my favorite foundries. They won my heart with Söhne, their modern reproduction of Akzidenz Grotesk "framed through the reality of Helvetica". They pour a tremendous amount of passion and research into their work. They are one of the priciest foundries on the list, but you get what you pay for – and they offer steep package discounts.

KOMETA is a Czech foundry crafting high quality faces in modern and traditional styles.

Margot Lévêque is a French Type Designer working with luxury clients across a variety of industries. Her store only features a handful of typefaces, but they ooze quality and are absolutely beautiful to behold in the type specimens.

P22 says it best themselves: "historic revivals and original designs for contemporary typography". They offer a rich library of historial reproductions ripe for remixing into modern identities. Font families are available at very reasonable prices.

Pangram Pangram hooked me with their massive collection of trial fonts. Their designs are executed very well, and range from newer, trend-forward designs, to historical reproductions/revivals. Their website is also gorgeous; I love clicking around for inspiration.

SilverStag is a fantastic resource for high quality, affordable fonts (even on the web!). Sans, serifs, scripts, display faces – their store has a surprising amount of depth for a smaller foundry backed by a single designer.

Tom Gordon is a type designer and graphic artist offering a wide range of assets on his store, including mockups, brushes, presets, and more. His style is derived from his professional background as a merch designer, and leans hard into distressed, stylized looks that would be a great fit for music graphics or video. His entry prices are very affordable.

TypeType offers a diverse collection of modern and stylized fonts suitable for everything from SaaS UIs to brand packaging. Their typefaces are widely visible in the wild, and are prominently featured in corporate usage.
