Graphic Style Latin Fonts
Time-saving Tip for Designers
Recommendation of Latin Fonts to enhance Design Efficiency
When it comes to Latin fonts, the options are much broader compared to Korean fonts. From clean sans-serif to elaborate display fonts, elegant serifs, and blackletter styles, you can explore a wide range of styles. Among them, there are many fonts that have made unique attempts that are difficult to find in Korean fonts. While Korean combines multiple syllables to represent a single character, alphabets are written individually, making it easier to infuse personality into each letter.
By selecting these Latin fonts to match the atmosphere of your work, you can reduce the time spent on typography design and increase work efficiency. With just one font, you can create captivating graphic effects. Here are geometric and uniquely characterized Latin fonts that resemble hand-drawn lettering or compositions of shapes.
First, let us introduce the Latin fonts from the Danish brand Playtype. You may have come across Playtype if you are interested in interior design. This brand was famous not only for its fonts but also for interior items utilizing their own fonts. Products such as posters, mugs, and apparel that incorporated fonts as the main design element were quite popular.
Especially, the font used on this T-shirt catches the eye with its unique typography that looks like it's drawn as a graphic. The letters used here are not graphics but fonts: Playtype's 「UND」. Inspired by the psychedelic music genre of the 1960s, this font reflects the zeitgeist, exuding a vibrant rhythm. Comprised of organic curves, it allows for the completion of a distinctive design even without adjusting the font itself.
You can see examples of font usage in various products besides clothing. The font used on this LP record cover is 「Italian Plate No7」. With its narrow width, the font gives a mechanical impression while adding a dash of cheerfulness with its rounded strokes. As shown in the image, you can easily create a unique design by mixing uppercase and lowercase letters. Be sure to look for interesting details hidden in lowercase letters like 'a, r, m, y'!
The characters resembling sculptural elements in the poster above are also fonts. Cast's 「Bissaboa」 expresses letters like ribbons, giving a decorative and flexible impression. Because the font is outlined, you can expand it into colorful designs by expressing the background or strokes in color, as shown in the image above. Try using this font for poster designs with a geometric and modern aesthetic!
Lastly, this font represented as a unique icon is Typotheque’s 「JulienStd」. With two weights, Light and Bold, and three styles, Round, Square, and Mix, totaling six weights, you can create endless combinations by mixing them appropriately. The way the alphabet is varied in expression gives it a unique feel, allowing you to create creative works even with short words or logos.
In this way, Latin fonts can be utilized not only in graphic design but also as objects in clothing and accessories. In addition to the fonts introduced above, distinctive Latin fonts such as Production Type's 「Media Sans」 and Dinamo's 「ABC Grow」 will also assist you in your work. Choose fonts that enable you to complete your unique creations and enhance design efficiency!
