38 of My Favourite Fonts for Design

Choosing the right font for your design is arguably as important as creating the design itself.

It’s about selecting the one that complements your design and conveys the tone of your message.

When I am choosing a font, there are a certain handful that are always top of mind. I listed them all out and came up with this list featuring 38 of my favourite fonts for design.

Many of these fonts you can download for free via Google Fonts or if you have a subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud (get a 40% discount here), you can get access to these fonts via Adobe Fonts.

Enjoy!
