Check out our selection of the top 10 free fonts you should download to create amazing designs in 2020.
After last week’s feature of the 10 coolest fonts for designers in 2020, today we want to show you the 10 of the best free fonts to create amazing designs. The selection includes a great variety of different styles. All featured fonts can be downloaded for free, but you should pay attention to the respective licenses for private and commercial use, and sometimes are only a few styles available for free download.
10th: Knile font family (free regular & Italic styles)
Designed by studio Atipo in collaboration with Maria Ramos, Knile is a geometric slab serif font family that comes in 16 styles but only its regular version plus matching italic style are available for free download. The typeface is characterized by a clean kerning and great readability. If you decide to download only the free version, then I would recommend the font only for the use in titles and very short text sections instead of full editorial use. Anyway, if you want to purchase the full family, it’s totally up to you what you want to pay. Sounds good? Then click on the following link.

9th: Skola Sans, a free font family for non-commercial projects

More precisely, the family includes a normal version with 5 weights plus matching Italics and a condensed version, which is equally equipped with 5 weights plus matching Italics. The character set supports both Latin and Cyrillic letters. It’s hard to believe but all this available for free, at least for non-commercial projects.

8th: Neoneon, a free typeface that aims to bring back the spirit of the 80s.
That’s fancy, isn’t it? Neoneon is Bakoom Studio’s first typeface and their goal was to reproduce the style of neon signage from the 80s. The font is a great choice for eye-catching headlines, magazine covers, advertisements, and posters. You can use it either for personal and commercial projects. The 2nd option please only with attribution.

7th: Salted Mocha, a handmade brush script typeface
Salted Mocha was designed by Stephanie Arsenault using the Procreate app on the iPad, which was a little fun fact for me and a reason to present it among our selection of the 10 best free fonts to create amazing designs no matter what tool you use. The typeface is based on authentic brush stroke textures, which give Salted Mocha a playful touch. It is free for personal and desktop commercial use.
