Honk is a free display typeface designed by Ek Type, added to Google Fonts in 2024.

It comes in 1 weight, and is a variable font with MORF and SHLN axes.

It is the #1,113 most popular Latin font family on Google Fonts and supports Latin, Latin Extended and Vietnamese characters.

As a display face, Honk works best at large sizes — headlines, logos, posters and hero sections — paired with a quieter font for body text.
