11 graffiti fonts to give your designs an edgy look
Blog post from Webflow
Graffiti fonts, known for their bold and dramatic designs, are inspired by various street art styles and can make online content stand out with their urban aesthetic. These fonts are often derived from real graffiti, which includes five common styles: tags, bubble letters, handwriting, stencils, and wildstyle. Tags serve as stylized signatures for artists, while bubble letters or "throw-ups" involve simple two-color designs. Graffiti handwriting incorporates a range of styles such as cursive or calligraphy to complement messages, although it may not be considered a formal style. Stencils, popularized by artists like Banksy, are used for their ability to convey complex social or political messages. Wildstyle is characterized by complex, often unrecognizable letters, adorned with elements like spikes and arrows, serving as a unique code among artists. Each style reflects the artist's skill level, intention, and message, contributing to the vibrant diversity seen in street art and digital typography.
