About
The collection pairs a watercolour-stroke script with a capital sans, each available in Essential and Pro versions across five weights from Thin to Black. The Pro script includes swashes, alternates, ligatures and stylistic sets via OpenType features. An accompanying ornaments font provides Mandala, Yantra and textile-inspired symbols gathered during Mendoza's travels in India.
Classification
The family centres on a watercolour calligraphy-based script with flowing curves, paired with a complementary all-caps sans-serif. The script subfamily is the primary voice of the collection, placing it firmly in the script category.
