Best of 2015: 100 Free Fonts for Designers

When it comes to adding visual variety to the design, there is no simpler way than to use a couple of typefaces, which on the one hand, should match each other and, on the other hand, should have some distinguishing traits. Whether you need to craft a print design or create a website interface, there is always a typeface that meets the requirements of the project as well as strengthens the theme and enriches the aesthetics. With a ton of third-party font markets, online galleries, regularly updated Google Web Font directory, you can yield the greatest result in short order and without the hustle and bustle.

If you were keeping up with the community during the last year, then you have already replenished your toolkit with a bunch of outstanding typefaces. If not, then we are here to fix this up. We have gathered a small list that comprises one hundred typefaces, ranging from sharp and ultra-narrow representatives with grotesque appeal and retro-futuristic vibe to polished, delicate and elegant calligraphy scripts. Tell us, which one is your favorite?
