Bird Script
A two-weight calligraphic script with extensive ligature sets and contextual alternates designed to replicate the natural variation of confident pen lettering.
About
Bird Script draws on the energy of gestural, freehand calligraphy, using contextual alternates and multiple stylistic sets to ensure each letter feels freshly drawn rather than mechanically repeated. The character set includes swashes for both upper and lowercase, discretionary ligatures and final forms, giving compositors considerable control over the rhythm and texture of a line. Two weights, Light and Regular, cover a broad range of Western Latin languages.
Classification
