I love Behance for many reasons. Firstly, the huge variety of design, illustration and photography projects online which are updated daily are a great source of inspiration and eye candy. Secondly, because of the free design “stuff” that is shared on the site. Earlier this year I wrote a post covering ten free display fonts from the Behance network, and I think it’s high time to showcase some more nice typography work. So, for your viewing pleasure and your font bag, here’s another set of lovely typefaces which are free to download.
