ST Ember

ST Ember font by David Buck is a free comic display typeface with a loose, hand-drawn bounce that feels like thick marker ink on paper. Its chunky curves and slightly uneven strokes give text a friendly wobble, cutting through stiff layouts with a relaxed, human touch.

Using ST Ember, you can bring warmth to kids’ book covers, classroom posters, comic panels, zines, social media graphics, and party invitations. This free font holds up well at larger sizes where its playful shapes can breathe; pair it with a simple geometric sans for small captions or body copy to keep things readable and fun.
