The 20 Most Popular Fonts in Graphic Design

From the traditional and classy serif, to the clean and techy sans serif fonts, here’s the most used typography in graphic design.

Whether it’s fonts for logos, advertisement design, books, or even web design and digital ads as of late, some popular fonts always make the final picks. You’d think the reason for that is that they are free or cheap, but the truth is that they are so well-designed, that they tick all the boxes: legibility, versatility, style, class, flexibility for other alphabets, and glyphs. Here are the best of the best fonts.

Serif typography has an extra decorative stroke at the endings of lines in the lettering and the so-called feet of letters. They tend to be perceived as more traditional and classic since they are the first kind of typography that dates back to the 18th century when old-style typography started being used in print. Companies who use them try to exude a sense of refinement, tradition and respectability as the core characteristics of their brands.
