Typography for Travel Bloggers: The Best Sans-Serif Fonts for Storytelling

by | Sep 4, 2019 | Blog Tools, Design

There’s no denying that sans-serif fonts have dominated the typography trends of the last decade, and what’s not to love about them?!

Sans-serif fonts are cool and contemporary, modern and often minimalist. They are popular choice for branding as they can help craft a young and adventurous, yet sophisticated design. Despite all of the unique typefaces available, the one thing that sans-serifs fonts have in common is that they are very, very versatile. They pair well with each other between different styles, and they also are a great compliment to serif and script fonts.

I’ve compiled some of my favorite sans-serif fonts that I personally love to use when adding character and personality to any branding project or blog, links to download are below the image!

Best Sans-Serif Fonts for Bloggers | The Bohemian Diaries

Fonseca | Pinstripe | Raleway | Galano Grotesque | Josefin Sans | Aqua Grotesque | Audrey | Bebas Neue
Montserrat | Comfortaa | Quicksand | The Bold Font | Digitalt | Nexa | Gotham Caviar Dreams

Here’s a breakdown of how and where you could incorporate these fonts throughout your blog:

For headers

Big and bold sans-serif fonts are a great way to grab attention! Galano Grotesque, Bebas Neue, and Gotham are great options for headlines and titles where you want to convey a strong sense of adventure. Audrey would be my choice for bloggers focussed on luxury travel.

For body text

The paragraph text needs to be easy on the eyes, so stick with simpler serifs like Montserrat, Raleway, and Nexa so readers can focus on your great stories!

For accents

Design away! Pinstripe, Fonseca, and Digitalt are a few sans-serif typefaces full of fun personality that are sure enhance your blog posts and designs!
