Font Crush: Belluccia Pro

May 6, 2014 by Patricia

belluccia

 

Belluccia is a beautiful cursive font with a hand-lettered feel.  It is absolutely gorgeous, and was featured on Snippet & Ink  as one of the best fonts for wedding invitations.  It was also featured on the Bestsellers and Top Fonts list of MyFonts.com.  It is distinctive of the lettering that master calligrapher and lettering artist Debi Sementelli does. She says that she designed the font with brides and invitation designers in mind, but it’s so fabulous I’ve seen it used elsewhere.

The font includes several versions of the alphabet, with flourishes, ornaments and borders.  The graphic above was designed using the font and its ornaments, except for the description, which I typed using Bookeyed Susan. Note that the font is very elaborate and highly stylized, so although it would look absolutely fantastic on names or titles, it’s not advisable to use it in paragraphs, especially at small sizes.  It will look stunning on envelope labels, wedding signage, programs, menus,  place cards – if you can’t afford  to hire a calligrapher to do it by hand but want the hand-lettered look that is so trendy right now.

I found this verse on Pinterest, I think it’s a snippet of a praise song. I loved the message — it’s something I believe in.

The custom monogram forms the letters H and A, but if you look at it long enough, you'll notice the curves of the letter A forms a letter L - which stands for Lisa, the founder's name. 
We wanted the brand to look and feel premium but welcoming, as befits her years of experience and level of expertise.
The typefaces surfacing this week share a theme: n The typefaces surfacing this week share a theme: not serifs broadly, but a specific vintage register, letterforms with visible weight variation, a slightly worn edge, the sense that someone drew them by hand. 
The Ashcombe Hall has the gravity of a country house library, the kind of face you'd expect stamped in gold on a leather spine. Vintage Serenade moves looser, more lyrical, closer to something a calligrapher would have signed.
Design has swung this way before. When the Industrial Revolution made everything fast and identical, William Morris and the Arts and Crafts movement answered with ornament, with craft, with the visible mark of the maker. The clean grid had its long turn at the wheel. This particular kind of type, textured, hand-cut, carrying a sense of history in the strokes, is having its own.
The antiques returning to people's living rooms and this type returning to branding are doing the same work. Both are reminding us a skilled hand was involved.
