6 of the Hottest New Fonts for 2025

Posted on February 12, 2025 | Updated on February 12, 2025

Fonts add personality to web designs and other graphic design projects. Most people are familiar with the tried and true favorites, such as Times New Roman and Arial. However, every year, today’s skilled typographers release new fonts.

While there isn’t an exact number of fonts released each year, most industry experts estimate the number is in the 100s, giving you not only all the fonts that have already been created to choose from, but an entirely new selection annually. 

If you’re looking for something already established, you should check out our font series, covering a number of options that will work for most projects. However, if you want to find out what the hottest new fonts are for 2025, we’ve got you covered. 

Hot New Fonts for 2025

The average person doesn’t think about the typeface on a website or printed material. They just read the words and form an impression instinctively. However, every font has a unique personality and usage. One of the reasons designers constantly release new fonts is to tap into the underlying power of the form of letters and words. 

If you want to take your designs to a higher level, you need to utilize new and little known fonts. We spent some time looking at new releases and came up with a list of hot new fonts trending for 2025. These will work for a variety of projects. 

Floriena

Floriena is a sans serif font designed by Doni Purwoko and released by Zeenesia Studio. The font is bold and wide, making it ideal for headings and logos. The mix of curves and straight edges give it a modern look with a nod to other eras. 

Floriena is a TrueType font with 447 glyphs. It supports languages such as Danish, German, English, Spanish and Portuguese alongside many others.  Floriena would work well for clothing brands, modern soap and candle makers or restaurants. 

It translates best on posters, signs and website headings to retain the crisp appearance and make the unique angles readily apparent. 

Fish Catcher

Fish Catcher comes with 188 glyphs. The font has a casual feel that is more script-like than some of the other choices in this list. The letters are bold but tall and thin with swoops and curves to make the font seem almost in motion.

This new font is best used as a headline. It doesn’t translate as well in smaller sizes. It also has a casual, modern edge that would work well for an e-commerce store or a poster.

Fish Catcher would be a great font for a sign for a seafood restaurant or as a logo for an online fishing supply store. 

TT Gertika

TT Gertika is a TT font with a geometric twist and was created by designers Antonina Zhulkova, Anastasia Pogorelova and the TypeType Team in November, 2024. The font looks best in higher points and features a sans serif base. The team says they were inspired by a font they saw on a 1930s poster with a similar structure. 

The font has 90-degree diagonal strokes and glyphs that add features such as triangles as dots on the letter “i.” The font has a bold look that is best suited for big events and retro themes. This font would work well to announce a special event or for headlines. 

Lanhova

If you’re looking for a good script font, Lanhova released in November and was updated a couple months later in January, 2025. The font features 246 glyphs and 250 characters. The handwritten font works well for logos. You can purchase a variety of licenses, including an extended license. 

The swoops and ligatures of the font give it a fancy look, well suited for a book cover, movie poster or website heading. The text is a bit difficult to decipher in smaller sizes, so this one is best suited for headings and larger representations. 

Lanhovia has a unique personality that is both contemporary and classic at the same time. The penning looks almost like someone writing with quill and ink. It might work well for history museums, collector websites or when you want the feel of the time before computers took over typing. 

Fliper Font

If you’re looking for a sans serif typeface that will work well for both headlines and body text, the Fliper Font Family is an excellent choice. It is a humanistic font with geometric elements. It works well for different sizes because it comes in a variety of weights from Hairline to Extra Bold. 

Designer Mateusz Machalski published the font just before Christmas 2024 and it made the top new fonts list in January, 2025. The font comes with style sets that let you rotate letters and create unique looking headlines. The font has a modern edge that works well for e-commerce brands. 

Imagine using Bold or Extra Bold Fliper Font for a heading or logo. Your brand could then use Fliper Extra Light for body text. The variety of weights offers an opportunity for companies to create a style guide with a font hierarchy that helps the user know how to navigate the site. If the headlines are also a certain size and weight and the subheadings another, the user will understand the site’s architecture more easily and move through the sales funnel. 

KG Someone You Loved Font

KG Someone You Loved Font features a mix and match font family that is pretty unique. The fonts have dots, hearts, stars, stripes, shadows and outlines, depending on what you need. It works really well for children’s products, daycares and schools. 

By selecting different options in the KG Someone You Loved font family allows you to mix and match and come up with a unique look. For example, you could use regular for an outlined look with one letter being in dots or hearts weight. 

KG Fonts are free for personal use, but if you want to use these commercially, you will need to pay a licensing fee.
