Rusalka specimen from ParaType

A single-weight reverse-contrast calligraphic display face with narrow proportions, alternate forms and automatic letter connections suited to short logo and headline settings.

About

Rusalka's reverse-contrast letterforms give it an eccentric, flowing character that rewards large-scale use in logos, packaging and posters, where the complexity of each glyph can be fully appreciated. Narrow proportions allow longer words to fit within tight layouts, while alternate forms and automatic connections lend inscriptions a bespoke quality. The typeface covers basic Cyrillic and extended Latin, with old-style figures and ligatures included.

Classification

Classified as display due to its reverse-contrast construction and calligraphic character, making it unsuitable for body text and intended specifically for large-scale headline and logo use.
