Author's note

Century font by Masato Shimojima of Design studio creation has a loose, handwritten rhythm with softly bending strokes and a gentle rightward slant. The letters feel informal yet deliberate, with rounded shapes and subtle variation that keep words flowing smoothly across the line. This free font has a friendly, human touch that stays readable even at smaller sizes.

Century works well wherever you need handwriting that looks personal but not messy, such as invitations, quotes, branding, packaging, greeting cards, and social media graphics. Use this free font a bit larger for titles or short text blocks, and pair it with a simple sans serif for supporting copy to keep layouts balanced and clear.
