Starburst
Resistenza Type · Giuseppe Salerno · 2013
A single-style gestural calligraphic script drawn with an oblique nib, blending copperplate precision with pressure-varied, expressive strokes.
About
Starburst is a light calligraphic script by Giuseppe Salerno, built from hand-sketched strokes using an oblique nib for copperplate and pencil work. The design plays with pressure and angle to produce a dynamic, rhythmical flow that sits between formal copperplate and freehand expressiveness. With a single Regular weight, it suits headline and display contexts where calligraphic character is the main draw.
Classification
Single-style expressive calligraphic script drawn with an oblique nib, emulating copperplate traditions with pressure-varied, gestural strokes. No weight range, no italic variant separate from the inherent oblique character of the letterforms.
