Vhia

Vhia, from Netherlands based Monkey Garage of the Fonts of Chaos collective and is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution Non-commercial license so check it out! What is Vhia? it’s a tribut to 90s sci fi – with its angular, goemoetric and futuristic characteristics. I could easily see this on an electro punk cyber techno record album sleeve. Old MONKEY GARAGE former member of the “KREW”, his course of the typography pass above all by his influence of urban art. “I am not a typographer, I do not seek to create the perfect letter. I rather work instinctively. It’s only after that I start to ask myself questions, and then it becomes complicated.” Download the VHIA TTF

Fox

Fox (or is it My Fox?) from the guy called Fox from England who did that ABC v2 font the other day. It’s kinda templatey and rounded but thick and straight- reminds me of some old emigre stuff that everyone used to love, Download the TTF.

Advent

Seven weights of Advent – three thin, three bold, and a good old reliable regular version. From Athens, Greece (not georgia) based designer Andreas Kalpakides (aka IndeGraphics.) What’s Advent like? A nice simple, elegant one – not too far off from Gill Sans maybe, but a bit more interesting. Quirky but not too out-there. More intriguing than Eurostile, but cut from the same cloth. Good to use for text, or even for display. Download Advent family OTFs,

ABC – version 2

ABC font typeface – version 2, from an English designer named FOX. It’s pretty simple and it’s really all that you need if you break it down to the bare essentials. What did they say, Accentuate the positive.. this font is positively geometric and an easy choice if you need a straight forward bauhausy face without a little less Bayer influence and a little more funkiness. Download ABC TTF.

Birth of a Hero

Somewhere between the straight laced ITC Avant Garde Gothic Book and the funky Aaux Light with a little bit of dirty funk thrown in, falls Birth of a Hero. It’s a bit rough and grungy but has undeniable roots in those esteemed faces. This font is from the canadian designer known as Last Soundtrack, and comes with the usual upper and lower case letters, numbers, punctuation and some accented characters to take it around the globe. Download the Birth of a Hero TTF and enjoy your new rough grotesk face.

Josefin

Josefin Sans Light is a nice fresh face from Typemade, a new independent foundry based in Monterrey, Mexico. “The idea for create this typeface was to make it geometric, elegant and kind of vintage, special for titling. It is based on 1927 Rudolf Koch’s Kabel, 1930 Rudolf Wolf’s Memphis, 1927 Paul Renner’s Futura. My idea was to draw something with good style, specifically that reflects the swedish design and their passion for good lifestyle, and by default all other scandinavian styles. The x-height is half the way from baseline to caps height, unlike any other modern typeface.” Download Josefin Sans Light OTF font.

Minotaur

Minotaur is a nice display face from new york based painter/illustrator/designer Walter Velez.. What is Minotaur? It does have a familiar style – I think it’s sort of like ITC’s KABEL but a little more rough and primitive on the outside.. Download Minotaur TTF.
