Basic is just that, a nice basic set of letterform designs. The font is from Indonesian vector artist/graphic designer Weknow. Basic is simple, clean and geometric sans serif typeface with a nice heavy feel. So basic it doesnt really need a lot of words to describe. Download the basic TTF.

Another nice legible elegant face that’s been floating around a while with no real trackable origin – from ‘rda_dgsn’ is all i really know. Some people say it looks like Myriad Pro from Adobe a bit too much, but I like it just the same. Download the four styles (bold, bold italic, regular, and italic) that make up GranDesign Neue Serif TTFS. Anyone know any more about where this font came from?

Seven weights of Advent – three thin, three bold, and a good old reliable regular version. From Athens, Greece (not georgia) based designer Andreas Kalpakides (aka IndeGraphics.) What’s Advent like? A nice simple, elegant one – not too far off from Gill Sans maybe, but a bit more interesting. Quirky but not too out-there. More intriguing than Eurostile, but cut from the same cloth. Good to use for text, or even for display. Download Advent family OTFs,

ABC font typeface – version 2, from an English designer named FOX. It’s pretty simple and it’s really all that you need if you break it down to the bare essentials. What did they say, Accentuate the positive.. this font is positively geometric and an easy choice if you need a straight forward bauhausy face without a little less Bayer influence and a little more funkiness. Download ABC TTF.

mm stenxil comes to fontaday from mike munzert, an amateur photographer and opensource fan living near Potsdam, Germany. mm stenxil is a pretty straight forward design – what you see is what you get; a techy stencil font unlike any other stencil really, clean,simple, and not ordinary. lower case only, no big deal though, lower case is enough when you are stencilling. Download mm stenxil.

Now arriving at Fontaday .. Airstrip Four from funky freeware font finagler Vic Fieger. It’s a nice clean face, techno influenced no-doubt about it. Rounded edges, straight ascenders, quirky angles. From afar it could be mistaken for something like Vag Rounded Black, but when you really look you see it has its own character and hard edged techno funky detroit-berlin-transeurope express-like spirit. Download Airstrip Four TTF and prepare for take off. (upper case is same as lowercase, has numerals, limited character set)

Oi, What was I thinking? I dunno really. I like it. It’s weird. It’s chunky when you zoom in on it, maybe someone somewhere needs a letter with clouds and a horizon and lines draw all chunky and funky like this, and maybe I like bunnies. I dunno. Easter Sunrise is from Renn Crump (aka pseudo nym) one of the guys who has been around a while designing some sweet shareware faces and this one has a retro-throwback vibe (maybe this one is from Dover?). Download the Easter Sunrise TTF, and be hoppy.
