Featured Font : Alexy

Alexy is a fun font by designer Azelea Rodgers. She says ‘Alexy is a hand-drawing of a twisted ribbon resembling a limited set of characters. Its unusual design makes it great as a headliner or it can be used for any ribbon awareness projects.’ I think this font could be cleverly incorporated into a number of holiday designs, and its on SALE for $6!

As you may have assumed I have a thing for fonts. They come in all shapes and sizes with elaborate swashes and elegant details. The right font can easily make or break a design. Every Friday, I’ll share some of my favorites and recent purchases here, hoping to inspire a typography addiction in everyone.

Featured Font : Magnel

Magnel is chalk full of swashes, ligatures and other alternates (my favorite kind of font!) and features big bold letters – it would be great for statement names, signage and other attention grabbing headlines.

This is the work of Eimantas Paškonis and is available at Myfonts.com for only $20!

Featured Font : Sketch Script

Oh how I cannot resist a script font! This one comes from UK based designer Ursula Hitz and is a steal at the sale price of $12.60! The designer notes that it is a ‘Shabby-chic calligraphic script based on hand-drawn characters.’

Featured Font : Baronessa

I know I’ve missed a few Font Friday posts in the past weeks, due to both the busy holiday season and a bunch of work-related deadlines – but I’m BACK!

This week I found a delightful font called Baronessa by Juraj Chrastina.  I love the name (mostly because I have glamorous idea of what a Baroness is based on Baroness Schräder from the Sound of Music, love that movie).  I also have a soft spot for all-caps fonts from years of architectural training.

From the author, “Baronessa is a handmade font with a “once-upon-a-time” world feeling, warm and friendly but not excessively childish. No swashes or ornaments, subtle irregularity and carefully chosen letter shapes make it sweet and funny but not crazy.”  Not surprisingly, I realized I had also fallen for another font from Juraj Chrastina – Ambassador, previously.
