Best free alternatives to
Airbnb Cereal
Airbnb introduced Cereal in 2018, a custom family developed with London studio Dalton Maag to be, in the company's words, one typeface that could work everywhere — from billboards down to buttons. It is a rounded geometric-humanist sans, warm and open, so often compared to Circular that the resemblance became a running joke in type circles. Whatever its debts, it gave Airbnb a single approachable voice across product and marketing. These free typefaces work in that tradition.
