HamLake Regular

HamLake font by M. Libby is a free decorative display typeface with a bold, inky presence and mischievous attitude. Its chunky, slightly crooked letterforms feel hand-cut and theatrical, while tiny illustrated details-like the winged hands and sketchy heart-slip in moments of surprise. The result is a textured, storybook-goth vibe that feels both homemade and dramatic on the page or screen.

Using HamLake, short phrases snap into focus, making it a natural fit for zines, gig posters, alt fashion branding, gothic romance titles, party flyers, and sticker designs. This free font works best big and loud, with plenty of breathing room around the words. For supporting text, pair HamLake with a clean, neutral sans serif to let its carved, decorative forms steal the spotlight.
