Type is one of the most powerful tools in branding and design. Imagine being a graphic designer and having access to 10,000 premium fonts for less than the cost of your cloud storage subscription? That’s exactly what Monotype has just announced. For the ridiculously low cost of £7.99 per month, the brand new Monotype Library Subscription service provides creatives with the freedom and flexibility to try more than 10,000 premium fonts from 2,200 typeface families.
The Monotype Library Subscription offers access to design classics like the Helvetica and Univers typefaces, branding favourites like the ITC Avant Garde Gothic, Frutiger and Trade Gothic designs and recent additions from Monotype Studio, including Masqualero — Monotype’s tribute to the late Miles Davis — which has been featured on Design Week and It’s Nice That. Its easy-to-use interface provides a collaborative and affordable way for creative professionals to explore, access, use and share both desktop and web fonts. Simply speaking, with one licence you can install the service onto an unlimited number of desktops, for a single fee. Whether it’s just you, your team or a talented group of freelancers the cost stays the same. Three cheers for that.
“We’ve built a solution that’s an absolute must-have in any designers’ creative toolkit,” said Brett Zucker, senior vice president of product management and marketing at Monotype. “The Monotype Library Subscription makes premium type accessible to everyone from students, to freelance designers to large creative agencies, and helps resolve some of the workflow challenges previously associated with working with fonts – allowing creative teams to work wherever and whenever they are inspired.”
