14 Modern, Stylish Fonts That Aren’t Helvetica - envato.com coupon

A sans-serif font is sometimes just what you need for your design project.

The type style is clean without a lot of decoration and usually well-balanced and easy to apply to the design grid.

Geometric modern sans-serifs are in style right now and can be seen in website, mobile and branding projects, in particular. Modern sans-serifs work well on screen and appear crisp and bold. They don’t have fine and small embellishments that can get obscured on a digital display. Sans-serifs in general are highly readable for headlines and more importantly for small text, like the ingredients on a food label.
