Hornbill Trial Black Italic

Hornbill Black Italic font by Eko Bimantara is a free black italic retro display font. Built within the Hornbill family, it leans forward with confident heft—thick, inky strokes that swell into soft wedge serifs and smooth teardrop endings. The italic angle adds momentum, turning simple words into statements, while the tight rhythm and rounded weight feel tactile, almost pressed into paper.

Using Hornbill Black Italic, headlines snap into focus without shouting. It shines on posters, vintage logos, beverage labels, album covers, packaging, and editorial pull quotes. This free font loves big sizes and generous margins; try slight negative tracking for extra punch. Pair with a clean grotesk sans for body copy to keep the retro warmth balanced and readable.
