today we're looking at some of the best free fonts that you can grab right now but we're
also going to rank them based on multiple different characteristics and that's so you
can better understand how to use these fonts and that starts with this typeface right here Humane
and yeah don't worry I've made sure every single thing is free for commercial use in today's video
Humane is an incredibly narrow sans-serif typeface that comes in seven different ways
and they go from extra light all the way up to bold now if we come over and take a look at the
characteristics you can see it has an almost top score for versatility and that's because
there are multiple different ways for us to use there's upper in lowercase letters and there's
numerical values as well but what does let it down in terms of Versatility is the fact that it's so
narrow and that makes it ideally only suited for headings and titles pretty much you'd really find
it difficult to use this one for body text on your designs it's quite a serious and loud typeface so
again it's great for headings and titles specific designs where you might be lacking white space
and room it is a Sans serif but it does seem kind of retro in some respects so it doesn't seem too
modern to look at and this typeface does struggle to look luxurious so it's probably not best for
designers that do call for kind of luxurious Style typeface next up we have lyco it's only available
in one weight and we don't even have any italics however there are lower and uppercase letter forms
and numbers too it could be used for body text and headings pretty easily so that does make it
pretty versatile glyco is a very serious and an elegant typeface and it does come across as quite
luxurious I can imagine this being used for a high-end handbag brand or something like that
it's not too loud but also it's not too discreet it's a really well made and well-crafted serif
typeface that you can grab right now next up we have the typeface a cabinet grotesque
this typeface is really versatile coming in with eight different weights lower and uppercase letter
forms along with numbers but we also have web type options in the download folder as well which is
always nice to have but again there are no italics it's a very modern and clean looking Sans serif
typeface so it would be great to use for a new and emerging brand that wants to Target younger
audiences it's also very legible so it would be great for body text as well as headaches the
thinner options of this could represent luxury if used correctly for example a modern fashion brand
or a modern kind of perfume brand but overall it's a very versatile and a great addition to
have as a graphic designer into your font library and of course it's free so far in today's video

out the freelancer plan for only 16 that's all linked down below but hey let's find some more
free fonts the fourth free font selection is coming from the typeface mustad this is another
Sans serif typeface but this one borders on the area of being trendy and unconventional without
going full experimental now as you can see on the F's and the RS the form is really quite unique
and a bit odd this is coupled with the slightly narrow style that the typeface does have now I
would say it's very modern and it's really well made as well it does have the potential to be
allowed in heavier weights and it's also quite an intention seeking style of typefacing some
regards and you can find this in nine different ways but again no italics what do we have to do
to get some metallics around here seriously but yeah this will be used for trendy modern and not
too serious designs and typeface number five is actually something taken right from Google and
that is Sanchez this is an interesting one because it only comes in one weight and so obviously it's
not that versatile that being said we do have up and lowercase letters and also numbers too now
the reason I've added it to today's list is just because it's so damn gorgeous for a slab serif it
really does an excellent job of looking so clean and so robust it can easily be used on body text
as well as headings and doesn't come across as overly serious and that's due to the lowercase
letters being quite round and quite approachable it would be really awesome to have this in
multiple different ways so when you're working on a design just ask yourself what do you want the
design to say and what do you want the audience to feel then you can ask the same questions about the
typeface you're looking at you can find everything in today's video linked down in the description
box below but whoa whoa whoa whoa if you actually want more free fonts to use on your designs check
