Trendy Fonts 2026: 14 Serif and Sans Fonts for Branding
This list mixes our current best sellers with our newest fonts. Two directions stand out in 2026: serifs with more character, often soft, condensed or wide, and sans fonts with rounded or wavy details. Each font below has nine weights from Thin to Black and a variable font.
Trendy Serif Fonts
Serifs have been common in branding for years, especially for beauty, food and editorial work. First bold, geometric serifs were popular. Now more of them are condensed, like Mirya and Aezra, or wide, like Walnuss.
Mirya
Our newest font, released in October 2026. A condensed serif with ball terminals and partly rounded stems, and capital ligatures like CA, LL and LO. For retro labels, book covers and beauty brands.
Test Mirya →Walnuss
A wide serif with short serifs. Some inner stems are rounded, which gives it an organic, plant-like look. For food, packaging and logos.
Test Walnuss →Aezra
A condensed, sharp serif with long, tapering terminals and thin serifs that almost touch the next letter. For book titles, film branding and dark, moody campaigns.
Test Aezra →Little River
A light serif with short, sharp serifs. Fine details along the stems give the letters a handmade look. For editorial, fashion, beauty and wellness branding.

- Use it for the logo and headlines. Pair it with a simple sans or serif for the text, so the design still works when the trend has passed.
- Try the alternate letters. Most of these fonts have alternates and stylistic sets, which make a wordmark look less like a stock font.
- Check the license. A Desktop License covers logos, print and social media. A website needs a Web License. See how to buy fonts for commercial use.
