defora Font

defora font by Joan Mas is a free eroded display font. The typeface looks like it’s been eaten away by rust and rain, with chunky, rounded shapes gnawed into irregular, inky islands. It feels grimy yet legible, like letters spray-painted on a wall and then scraped by time-great when you want something raw, loud, and a bit unsettling.

Using defora, you can push mood-heavy projects like horror movie titles, metal or punk album covers, underground event posters, escape-room branding, zines, and dystopian game graphics. This free font works best at large sizes where all the rough, corroded edges show, and pairs well with a plain, narrow sans serif for captions or body copy to keep everything readable.
