New Font Crushes

August 6, 2011 by Patricia

parfait script

 

parfait script pro takes its inspiration from spencerian script and pointed brush lettering, two styles of writing (or of drawing letters, a calligrapher would say), that the designer successfully combined.

 

Breathe Pro font

breathe: maximiliano r. sproviero’s gift of the year! the aim of the designer was once more to give the user the chance to play and travel from very formal and conservative letterforms to the amazing world of swashes and flourishes. possibilities of alternating and ligating characters in this font are absolutely fantastic. 


Aphrodite Pro

aphrodite slim pro is not just a lighter version of its sister aphrodite pro. aphrodite slim pro has duplicated the quantity of characters of its partner.  more delicate and meticulous, aphrodite slim pro is once more a new typography with deep calligraphic ideals. its mission is to rescue the spontaneity of the artesanal lettering in order to obtain unique words; those which only calligraphy masters of our past or lettering artists of our present could give us.

Parfumerie Script Pro

parfumerie script pro: after the success of aphrodite slim (one of MyFonts’ best fonts of 2009) typesenses presents parfumerie script, designed by sabrina lopez. with more than 2500 glyphs, Parfumerie is unique amongst the others in its style because it is based on the author’s calligraphy. one of its variables is a decorative option which combines copperplate calligraphy with an ornamental form native of buenos aires (where sabrina lives), the ‘filete portenio’, which makes it look original amongst the other fonts.  
parfumerie, as its name reflects, is attractive like a fragrance, delicate, elegant, sophisticated, feminine, sensual, glamorous, ornamental and decorative.

i think i just landed in font heaven.

THE EXPERIENCE CONTINUES ON INSTAGRAM @FANCYGIRLDESIGNS

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.
The Victorians read morning glory as fleeting love The Victorians read morning glory as fleeting love. I read it as a flower that simply knows when to leave the party.

Every object here survived because someone refused to rush the first pass. That's what craftsmanship actually is, a decision rather than a finish, made once, correctly, by someone with the patience to do it properly. Cornicing nobody hurried. A pattern made stitch by stitch. A tack room that assumes you already know what you're looking at.
The eighteenth century understood something we're still relearning: ornament is a form of discipline, not decoration for its own sake. That's the instinct behind this palette, this pairing, this whole quiet insistence on doing it right.
I am so excited to be working on this brand identity!
