Fonts are one of the most critical tools in any designer’s toolbox. With clever use, you can transform a design from humdrum to extraordinary. So to inspire you, every month, we put together this collection of the best new fonts we’ve seen in the previous four weeks. March’s edition includes chunky type, some experimental typefaces, and a subtle approach to the Art Nouveau trend we’ve followed for the last few months. Enjoy!
