Fonts In Use: A large archive of typefaces

Discover "Fonts In Use": an interesting archive of typefaces, explore, get inspired and transform your designs with the most iconic fonts!

In the vast world of typefaces, we always look for those that communicate what our project needs. Because the purpose of typography is not only to convey messages, but with typography we also give personality to our designs.

Domestika teacher and graphic designer Enric Jardí (@enricjardi) recommends us in his course How to think like a graphic designer what he considers the best website, currently, to find inspiration in the use of fonts: Fonts In Use. In addition to finding fonts to use in your identity projects, it also focuses on editorial and advertising.

Fonts In Use

Fonts In Use is an online catalog of reference typefaces in the world of design in which you enter to search for a typeface and end up browsing the entire archive discovering new inspirations. Each typeface comes cataloged with a basic file: author, date, format, and with well related links and a wide collection of uses: you can browse through examples where the typeface has been applied in real life and what other typefaces were used for that project. You will find examples of advertising campaigns, book covers, websites, product packaging and every format you can imagine.

Everything, absolutely everything, is well documented in an easy to use website, where going from one typeface to another is like dancing between letters. You will browse through the years and discover typefaces that you had already forgotten and that can be of great use in the present. The catalog includes from the most classic typefaces to the most contemporary and experimental ones. It also has a search engine so you can find the specific one you were looking for or explore the projects by industry, year, format, labels or location.
