In 2024, designers are pushing boundaries, breaking molds, and creating typefaces that resonate with emotions, brand identities and user experience.
Buckle up, we’re diving into the trends that matter:

- Imperfect Lettering: Who needs perfection? Embrace the wobbles, the quirks, and the charming imperfections.
Trending fonts:
- Katarine: Tall, lean, and balanced like a tightrope walker with a soft spot for monospaced vibes.

Serifs aren’t staying quiet anymore. They’re trader their monocies for megaphones.
- Friendly Serifs: Warm, approachable, and ready for a chat. These serifs day, “Hey, let’s have coffee and discuss kerning.”
