Fillmore by Craig Eliason is a fun, expressive choice for brand identities. 🫧 Its disjointed, blobby letterforms draw on French Art Nouveau, Surrealism, and 1960s psychedelic design, from the brushed lettering of Moulin Rouge era poster artists to the abstract art of Jean Arp, Joan Miró, and Isamu Noguchi.

Trends burn bright and burn out. These five revivals carry centuries-old letters into the present, and they are still doing some of their best work today. Read the full article at buff.ly/Rcsha5d

A Didone made for the page. Mondial Text by Lukas Schneider revives Hans Bohn’s 1930s design, with abrupt shifts from thin to thick strokes and a pronounced vertical stress that add art deco grandeur to a book’s text. 👉 License Mondial Text at typenetwork.com

Brickie Variable by Juanjo López is a semi-serif family with a wide range of widths and weights, built for the boldest posters in its extreme styles and the most legible text in its regular zone. 👉 License Brickie Variable at typenetwork.com

Chidori by Frank Grießhammer began as the Latin counterpart to Momochidori, the Japanese typeface from Adobe Originals. It carries the same quirky, humorous, and approachable spirit, inspired by the Showa Era. Free from having to match Momochidori’s Japanese design, Chidori’s weight and width axes stretch further toward the extremes. 👉 License Chidori at typenetwork.com

Parry and Parry Grotesque by Artur Schmal have their roots in the robust slab serif and sans serif typefaces of the Victorian age, but they aren’t revivals. Soft curves and quirky serifs meet sharp-cut stroke endings, giving a text image that’s softer than most slab serifs. Get them at typenetwork.com

Retros by Rustam Gabbasov is a natural fit for beauty, lifestyle, and luxury brand identities, blending the softness of broad-nib brush calligraphy with the strength and precision of chiseled stone carving in its elegant curves. 👉 License Retros at typenetwork.com

Marat by Ludwig Übele began as a sans serif and gradually morphed into lively serif forms. Moderate contrast and strong serifs give the lighter weights a typewriter-like slab quality, while the underlying structure follows contemporary Antiqua proportions. Alternating angular and rounded corners keep it soft and friendly, and tense curves complement the roman cuts. 👉 License Marat at typenetwork.com

Spooky season calls for blackletter, but Schmaltzy by Matthijs Herzberg works well beyond Halloween. It's about as relaxed as a blackletter gets, with no sharp edges, only smooth curves flowing into one another, and a distinct personality that can anchor a brand identity. 👉 License Schmaltzy at typenetwork.com
