Type Journal

Type Journal

Another from typo the que, the supernova font family.

Production methods: A digital creation of a script/bone originated font. 


Anatomy: Versatile line weights and cuts within the terminal ends create contrasting light and heavy elements with no regular pattern apparent. Bellow is examples of all the family styles. The terminal ends are round though not sharp like usual script fonts this is quite soft making me feel it could be created with a sable brush too. 

Identity: Designed between 2009-2012 and released in 2013 by Martina Flor and I think it would be used for headers on invitations and special events like weddings.

Character: Slightly decorative and elegant in its light weight faces with much better legibility of individual glyphs giving overall better readability within context off a body of text. Its also a lot more structured than other scripts which are usually a fair deal more decorative and floral and loose within there spirals and swirls that come off the terminal ends of the strokes like seen in the poster version. The black version is beginning to be high impact but starts to become more playful and soft due to the increased visibility of the roundness at the end off the strokes.
