Brownie by Nemk
Today's font is Brownie, created by Japanese design student Nemk. It's an octagonal font that comes in two weights, Regular and Light.
You'll have doubtless noticed that these sweet angular letterforms only come in uppercase flavours; on the plus side this fab OpenType font is completely free; simply grab it from the Brownie page!
