Fonts In Use — 34,000+ Real-World Typography Examples

About this resource

Fonts In Use is a large independent archive showing how typefaces are used in real design projects. The database contains more than 34,000 examples across branding, books, posters, packaging, magazines, websites, music releases, advertising, signage and many other formats. The main value of the resource is context. Instead of viewing a typeface only as a specimen, you can see how it performs in finished design work. Many entries identify the typefaces used, project credits, dates, formats and other useful details. The collection can be searched and filtered by typeface, topic, format, date and popularity. A dedicated Staff Picks section highlights thousands of strong examples selected by the Fonts In Use editorial team. Fonts In Use is especially useful for graphic designers, brand designers, art directors, type designers and students looking for typography references, researching a particular font before using it, or discovering new type combinations and approaches to working with text.
