Cantaloupe is a fun and fruity stencil design built from a small set of shapes that are sliced, diced, flipped and repeated. It's most effective used in short mixed-case settings for extra punch.

Device font Vektra makes the most of high resolution, with stripes of different density overlapping to create a cross-hatched tonal effect. Use at larger sizes and in shorter settings where the layered details can be seen – and we suggest experimenting freely with colour.

Our font Freehouse has a down-to-earth aesthetic that's at home across food, music, film and TV (we spotted it recently on the season finale of Poker Face). The rounded serifs lend a friendly, crafted appeal that works well for branding projects, while the distressed version, designed to evoke 'rough print on a wet beermat', brings a grittier edge to posters, titles and headlines.

Our new font Supermarché revels in the eccentricities of the super-bold sans, with the logic and consistency a modern font requires. Alternates feature circular counters and punctuation, and a cursive style. Its robust shapes are particularly suited to shadows and distortions. Fun, unpretentious and impactful! Available now on Device Fonts, or as part of our 5- and 10-font Kickstarter bundle (only two days remaining ✨) Links in bio #Typography #Fonts #TypeDesign #TypeInspiration #GraphicDesign #typegang #typographer #typedesigner #GraphicDesign #fontdesign #font #fontdesigner #goodtype #goodtypetuesday #fontoftheday

Introducing Valletta – a high-contrast condensed face with signature top-left slab serifs and triangular elements, inspired by the narrow streets and tall buildings of Malta. Valletta evokes an elegant modernity and looks especially refined in letterspaced settings. #Typography #Fonts #TypeDesign #TypeInspiration #GraphicDesign #typegang #typedesigner #goodtype #fontdesign #fontstyle #fontoftheday #typenerd #editorialdesign #typedesign

Quagmire is crisp and readable at small sizes, but characterful enough for headlines. The chamfered internal edges of characters such as the M and H echo the clipped diagonals of characters such as the V and A. Use where precision with a touch of engineered craft is needed. Available in several weights, plus an extended version and an italic with cursively-derived lowercase characters. #Typography #Fonts #TypeDesign #TypeInspiration #GraphicDesign #typegang #fontdesign #font #letterforms #fontstyle #goodtype #fontoftheday #typedesigner #typelover #typographic #graphicdesigner

Device font Laydeez Nite keeps a heavy horizontal emphasis on the top and bottom of the letters, channeling a disco-era playfulness. #retrofonts #fonts #fontoftheday #fontstyle #fontnerd #typography #fontdesign

A nice surprise to see my font Worthington Arcade used so atmospherically in the titles of #Frankenstein by one of my all-time cinematic heroes, Guillermo del Toro. @gdtreal vicefonts.co.uk/catalogue/worthington-arcade. Also featured in the Device Fonts book: http://kck.st/4o08Oot

...did we mention we have a new type catalogue coming out? Scorcher is a monoline italic with flicked terminals and a tight-letter fit. Evoking car races, flickering flames, or squeezed toothpaste, it definitely demands attention. Just one of the many, many fonts featured in our book (link in bio) #retrofonts #retrotype #retrodesign #font #fonts #fontstyle #typography #fontnerd #typedesign #typedesigner #typedesign #Letterforms
