I launched Typewolf as a side project in June of 2013. Working as a designer, I was always frustrated by the lack of good resources for choosing fonts for design projects.

Just like previous years, we've undertaken great efforts to look for, categorize, and create font previews of 100 typefaces that you can use to do almost anything.

Font Selection As you know, the selection has been made keeping the typical type classifications in mind to help you browse more efficiently: Serif, Sans Serif, Slab Serif, Rounded, Geometric, Decorative, Display, etc. Many of these fonts can also be downloaded as a web font kit so that you can use them in your online projects....

If you haven't tried your hand at lettering yet, get started with these brilliant fonts that evoke that coveted hand-drawn look....
