Rouge Script

Rouge Script was initially drawn by hand with a copperplate nib, and then redrawn with the termination style of a brush script. This gives it the flavor of a casual script.

It is very soft and has fast curves, while its low slant angle makes it very legible and improves the render on-screen. It works perfectly for titles or short phrases in branding, magazines, food, feminine and fashion related typography.

Mrs Saint Delafield

Mrs Saint Delafield is not just a new type set. It has a history. The font is part of the Charles Bluemlein Script Collection.

Charles Bluemlein, an American type designer, created a series of handwriting script modelled on the handwriting and signatures of his acquaintances. The Charles Bluemlein Script Collection is a reminder of the days of hand lettering and calligraphy in the United States.

The Bluemlein scripts were assembled and created – by collecting different signatures and then building complete alphabets from them. The new script typefaces, with their own identity unique from the inspiration sources, were given fictitious names. The typeface styles were then showcased in Higgins Ink catalogs.

Alejandro Paul and Sudtipos bring the Bluemlein scripts back to life, with care to render the original scripts authentically and keeping the fictitious names originally assigned to them by Bluemlein.

Merienda

‘Merienda’ is a Spanish term for “afternoon snack”, and this pleasant time of the day was worth its own typography. Merienda has soft shapes, is slightly condensed, and has a rhythm which is an invitation to read short pieces of text. It is ideal for headlines which call for height, as its strokes resemble those of a brush and deliver freshness and a dynamic touch in the development of words.
