Free Font Friday: Mistral

By James

Mistral

Designed by URW, 1992

 

At first glance, Mistral is a hilariously outdated and girly ’80s-style font. But when used right, it can be an interesting and beautiful typeface in the vein of Roger Excoffon et la fonder Olive. This flamboyant script was exaggerated even more by being printed in hot pink and blazoned on the poster for the 2011 film, Drive.  But, in defense of a perhaps “campy” choice for the movie poster font, what Mistral brings with it’s retro flair is an…

“unusual mash-up of art-house style and commercial genre.”

No doubt, when you see those bright pink letters, you will see Drive as much more than your standard crime thriller. Side note, the more you listen to the Drive soundtrack, the more Mistral seems like a valid choice, for everything.  Tread lightly.

Free Font Friday: Banda

By James

Banda Typeface
Banda is a semi-serif typeface characterized by a tall x-height and rounded semi-serifs. Although first designed as a display typeface, Banda quickly evolved into a more complex set, consisting of seven weights plus their respectful italics. Banda can be used for short passages of text as well as fancy displays. Spanning the elegant finesse of the thinner weights to the almost childish bubbliness of the heavier weights, Banda is a great all-round performer, suitable for logos, headlines, packaging and food products and much more.

Free Font Friday: Fanwood

By James

Fanwood

made by Barry Schwartz

Based on work of a famous Czech-American type designer of yesteryear. The package includes roman and italic. The current version is 1.1, which includes a few improvements. It also introduces Fanwood Text roman and italic, which are the same as Fanwood but slightly darker and reduces in contrast; I tailored it to increase readability on my Amazon Kindle 3 e-book reader.
