|Adorn Roman

Friday, April 22, 2016,13:50:37

Adorn Roman is both a display and text typeface marked by its traditional calligraphic hand. Technically it is a humanist sans, with tapering stems and high contrast in its thicks and thins. It was created with a chisel-edged calligraphy pen, and even digitized it has the look of what a designer might create with a calligraphic tool. With more texture and character than you’d typically find in body text, it brings a softer, warmer look for small groupings of words. The lowercase adds a pra ... Read More

Friendly, happy, and casual, Buckley is a condensed, upright hand-lettered font based on characters created with my favorite vintage fountain pen (a Waterman Ideal #2).
