About
Scorpione carries a near-hand-drawn quality through its extended serifs and bold lowercase decisions, placing it firmly in the expressive display category. The influence of Carol Twombly and Aldo Novarese grounds it in a tradition of calligraphically informed serif design. It is intended for iconic, high-impact text settings rather than continuous reading.
Classification
