We live in a highly digital world, which has affected not only the way in which we communicate with each other and the way we live our lives in general. It has also affected the way everything is designed. Today, it’s all about making everything streamlined and clean. It’s about making things as minimalist as possible, without sacrificing the design’s unique character – and if there’s something that perfectly captures these requirements, it’s futuristic fonts. No matter how often you use images of spaceships or moon men, you still can’t capture what the future holds. What you really need is a great font choice. Even if you leave the background blank, a truly futuristic font will take your audiences where you want them to be. Where can you use such fonts? Anywhere, when you think about it! You can use them on modern websites, or for thematic posters. You may even use them on logos or business signage, and even for invitations, billboards, magazine layouts, or movie posters. The interesting thing about these fonts is that they are extremely versatile. Just because we’re calling them futuristic does not mean that you need a sci-fi or highly digital theme to your design to use them. In fact, the native simplicity of a lot of futuristic fonts makes them perfect for just about any kind of project. A lot of them, you can even consider as default or go-to fonts perfect for moments when you hit a blank wall in trying to come up with new designs for clients. But not all futuristic fonts are simple and straightforward as mentioned above. There are also some that are bold and highly dramatic. These are perfect for more prominent elements like titles, huge announcements, product labels, and other similar uses. In all honesty, there are just so many applications for futuristic fonts that they’re definitely a must-have in every designer’s collection. No such fonts in your arsenal just yet? Here are 30 futuristic fonts you can use to have just that.
