I love FF Clan – it’s so 2012!
I would have to pick FF Chartwell for being such a clever and unusual use of opentype. It’s also great to see enlarged families like Tisa Sans and Novel Sans rounded (I’m a big fan of large usable families).
I love Krul!, it feels like soft ancient time in a good balance between current and trendy publishing design.
Great translation of unique dutch lettering into a distinctive digital typeface. The typeface retains its calligraphic handwritten qualities really well.

I love Krul. It’s simply gorgeous.
I vote for Krul
I really love Krul. Beautiful swashes
I loved Krull, great font!
Definitely Krull. It’s the best font of the year!
Krull!
I already said Harriet on twitter. But meanwhile I also came to like Winco. And Trim.
FF Chartwell
LFS Trim – original, versatile, well-crafted. Can’t wait to use it on something.
I vote for Krul. It’s spectacular!
My vote is for Krul… the perfect mixture, a veritable cocktail of style, craft, pizazz, and originality… love it.
My vote is for Winco…love it
