Handwriting Fonts: Most Popular Typefaces, Best for Webfonts

Media_httpcdndesignmo_wehgv

Handwriting, penmanship, or calligraphy: they all have different meanings, and they all pertain to specific aspects of writing. Nevertheless, it was an artistic, personal and quintessential method to translate ideas to a semi-permanent format such as paper or parchment, and be used for different ways, but more importantly, to serve as a communication tool, or historical document. Handwriting fonts such as that of several cursive and script fonts have become very popular in the 19th century onwards to the middle of the 20th century. It has become an important tool since a lot of people, especially from, advertising who wanted fonts that are personal and close to known forms especially if they did not have any lettering specialists.

The history of handwriting is extensive and the handwriting fonts are not just limited to cursive or script fonts. Many other fonts have been based on handwriting and thus, can all be attributed as part of the handwriting influence. Other fonts have emerged such as of transitional and modern as well as sans serif fonts as a reaction against more humanist styles connected to handwriting.

A Typography Series Experiment Featuring Chinese Characters

Media_httpwwwdesignyo_dtwhv

This typography series took a long time to make, a year if you can believe that, and was made for a lifestyle web magazine which tried to explain how the traditional culture tells us about weather change and what happened during that change.

It is a typography project in which the designer put a lot of effort and managed to create something really beautiful. We are so concentrated on typography featuring European characters that we forget there’s the possibility of having great typography from other cultures too.

20 Free Brilliant Calligraphic Fonts

Media_httpwwwinspirat_akwdc

The word “calligraphy” originates from the Greek kallos which means “beauty” and graphẽ, meaning “writing”. It’s a visual art defined as “the art of giving form to signs in an expressive, harmonious and skillful manner” (C. Mediavilla, Calligraphy). Due to their embellishments, calligraphic fonts may lose on legibility and thus, general usability. But they can still be appropriate for both graphic and web design, identity and branding projects, flyers, brochures, advertisements, product packaging and more. So I decided to put together a showcase of free calligraphic fonts for you guys to add to your personal collection of design resources. Also, keep in mind that Search Free Fonts can be a great quick fix if you find yourself in need of some more free fonts.
