About – Hey Fonts

A catalog built for type lovers, by type lovers.

Hey Fonts is a free font discovery catalog. A place where designers, developers, and curious creators can find the right typeface without the noise.

The story

2019

Founded as a blog by a Ukrainian developer with a love for type

2026

Acquired and relaunched by Cristian, a Spaniard based in Brooklyn, NYC

Hey Fonts started in the summer of 2019 as a personal project, a Ukrainian developer's way of cataloging the typefaces he loved. What began as a blog quietly grew into a reference point for designers who wanted something simple and browsable.

In 2026, an Spaniard type enthusiast living in Brooklyn, acquired the site with one goal: keep it honest, fast, and genuinely useful. No paywalls. No algorithmic noise. Just fonts, beautifully presented.

What we offer

Every font on Hey Fonts comes with full glyph previews, every character, symbol, and number, so you can evaluate a typeface before you commit to it.

You'll find free downloads, licensing details, and curated similar font suggestions so you can explore confidently. The catalog is hand-reviewed, not auto-generated. We care about quality over volume.

Each listing links back to the original designer or foundry where possible, because good type deserves proper credit.

Our approach

We believe finding a typeface is about clarity, you land on a page, you see the glyphs, you know if it's right. No subscriptions, no dark patterns.

The site is maintained as a labor of love, updated regularly with new additions from independent designers and established foundries alike.
