Futuristic Fonts

Counted by structure, the 34 break down into 15 sans serif, 13 display, 2 serif, 2 stencil and 2 from other categories. The largest group, 15 sans serif fonts, is 44% of the page; all of them are also on Sans Serif Fonts. For a free download, start with Circuit Outline: it is in the free collection, while the other 33 of these futuristic fonts need Pro, Studio or a Font Pass. Every font on this page is a single Regular style, so there is no bold or light to switch to within a family. Besides futuristic, the library most often files these fonts as geometric (34), bold (17), poster (17) and retro (16). 19 of them come in 2 groups drawn on a shared letter structure; the largest includes Bubble Tech Outline, Circuit Outline and Hull Block, which differ in effect, slant or width rather than in their basic letter shapes.

Velocity Stripes leans the most, about 10°; across the futuristic fonts with a measurable angle, 3 of 22 lean right with a median of 10° and 19 stand upright; the other 12 have strokes too varied to give one angle. Across these futuristic fonts the narrowest is Catenary Stem Sans and the widest Geo Triangle Aperture: their average lowercase letters measure 67.3% and 117.1% of the cap height. The page median is 97.4%, 21% wider than the 80.5% median of the whole library, so the same words take a longer line than in an average library font. Lowercase x-heights of these futuristic fonts sit between 67.8% and 81.9% of the cap height, with a median of 77.1%; the library median is 71.8%. How dark a line of these futuristic fonts looks ranges from 13.5% ink coverage in Bubble Tech Outline up to 52.9% in Cove Joint Sans 3D; the median here, 37.8%, is 8% darker than the library's 34.8%. Read from the o, stroke contrast splits the 20 measurable futuristic fonts this way: 1 has strong thick-and-thin contrast, 11 keep close to one stroke weight in every direction and 1 is heavier across than down, a reversed contrast. Effects drawn into the letters appear on 18 of the 34 futuristic fonts: 3D extrusion on 4, outline on 4, stripe on 4, military stencil on 2, inline on 2, paint drip on 1 and varsity outline on 1.

Character sets run from 148 to 3,966 (Racer Slab), and outside Latin 3 fonts cover Chinese and Korean Hangul and 1 covers Arabic, Devanagari, Hebrew and Japanese kana. Each one includes accented Latin letters beyond A to Z (a median of 53), enough for words like café, niño and Straße. Kerning is built in for 20 of the 34: a median of 116 adjusted letter pairs, up to 202 in Wraith Slab. 2 have OpenType ligatures or alternates, and 2 have tabular figures that line up in columns of prices or scores.
