Author's note

Farang font by Michael F Hughes is a free Thai style font that gives Latin letters a distinctly Southeast Asian flavor. Its tall, upright forms, rounded corners, and bar-like marks floating above the letters echo the rhythm of Thai signage, while the smooth, inky curves keep it friendly and approachable rather than cliché. The result feels like lively street lettering you might spot on a market stall or café awning, translated into a clean, digital typeface.

Using Farang, you can instantly suggest Thai or pan-Asian themes on restaurant logos, menus, food packaging, travel posters, event flyers, social media graphics, and storefront signage. This free font works beautifully at larger sizes where its stacked accents and curved strokes can breathe; pair it with a simple sans serif for body text so the decorative character stays clear and readable.
