Handy Cut
Latinotype · Patricia Vergara · 2013
A two-style display family inspired by finger-cut paper, featuring rough organic letterforms and a companion dingbats set for expressive, short-text use.
About
Designed by Patricia Vergara (Paty Bean) from southern Chile, the typeface captures the irregular, tactile quality of paper cut without scissors. It ships with a dingbats style and alternate characters to encourage playful, unpredictable composition. Best suited to short bursts of display text where its handmade character reads as intentional rather than imprecise.
Classification
Experimental display typeface mimicking the irregular, organic quality of paper cut by hand. The rough, gestural forms place it firmly in the display/handcrafted category rather than any classical type tradition.
