Handmade Fonts has created object-inspired fonts to be downloaded and used on your computer. The company has been inspired by things like [LEGO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-typewriter), [donuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-krispy-kreme-chocomania-collection), zippers, aluminum foil and [melting chocolate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/molten-chocolate-cups).

The fonts are pretty cool and look exactly like their real counterparts, only shaped into various letters and numbers. I particularly like the zipper-inspired fonts--they look exactly like the back of a dress or the bottom of pant legs. The object-inspired fonts are available to view and buy at the company's website.
