These fonts, generously created and shared by talented designers, offer a wealth of options for designers on a budget.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.

Everything from the invisible fumes perpetually emanating from furniture upholstery, dust and danders from our own skin and the fur of our pets, and even radon seeping up from the ground can all accumulate into a cauldron of unhealthy pollutants.

When we design products or websites for people like ourselves, there are many others who are, as a result, left out. From visually impaired users who rely on assistive technology, to people with a temporary injury such as a broken arm, tech users are forever diverse and beautifully unique. The products we design can, and should, reflect the extremely wide range of human experiences and needs.
