Font of the day: Samoerai

Here at Creative Bloq, we're big fans of typography and we're constantly on the hunt for new and exciting typefaces - especially free fonts. So, if you're in need of a font for your latest design or just like to keep a collection so you're prepared, we may be able to help out.

Samoerai by Jos Schoot Uiterkamp

Today's font of choice is Samoerai by 18-year-old graphic design student Jos Schoot Uiterkamp.

"Samoerai is a unique, uppercase display font inspired by Japanese and Chinese culture," he says. "It started out as a litle experiment with the use of handwritten characters in Photoshop, but quickly escalated in a complete, special font. It contains a double alphabet with alternative characters, also including some special glyphs."
