The typefaces below are among the thousands of 2014 releases that didn’t make this year’s Favorites list. Think of this collection as a sort of “editor’s picks”. These are the typefaces that I personally felt were worthy of selection — they just didn’t happen to be among the writers’ favorites.
The name of the face is followed by the designer, and then (when applicable) the name of the foundry/publisher.
