ABOUT COURTESY
--------------------------------------------
As in Victorian times, the precious, hand-lettered look of custom stationery is back in vogue. Enter Courtesy Script, my newest ornamental script typeface.
Courtesy captures the elegance and propriety of finely practiced Spencerian penmanship, in particular the Zanerian school. Its lowercase is notably understated, a simple monoline with very wide connections that ease readability. In the capitals, Courtesy adds variety in both the weight of the strokes, and in degrees of flourish — from merely fancy to over-the-top engrossery.
Based on an alphabet found in a 19th-century penmanship journal, Ale created hundreds of additional, stylistically complementary letterforms. Alternate capitals and lowercase letters, swashed lowercase forms, and ending and ornamental swashes; numerals, punctuation, and non-English and accented characters.
With virtually endless ways to customize its use, Courtesy helps designers create fluid, signature looks on stationery and invitations, book covers, fashion layouts, and packaging.

catherine deneuve, having been approached by tony scott to appear in the hunger, was advised by co-star david bowie that director paul schrader had her in mind to star in a coming production (for which mr. jones had been hired to provide some songs). knowing that both were horror films and having little interest in wasting her talents on what she thought of as commercial dreck (or in being typecast as a scream queen at this point in her career), she requested scripts and storyboards for both films, as well as mockups of the appearance of her character so she could decide which film, if any, to go with.
tony scott wisely concealed the artwork being pushed by the studio (which wound up on the theatrical poster, of course) and hired his niece to rework some screencaps from fw murnau's nosferatu (with ms. deneuve's face eerily replacing that of max schreck). paul schrader, meanwhile, believed that his screenplay was superior and allowed the studio to attach the above image, created before anyone realised that the film was really soft-core pornography.
upon opening both packages, ms. deneuve sent mr. schrader her regrets before reading one page of the script. furious at the star, the director and the hallucinating greeting-card designer who created the imagery, rko pictures frantically looked to replace ms. deneuve's european allure and chose nastassja kinski as their star, while the silly cat painting became a bad joke in the film and publishing industries until some unknown prankster convinced andre norton to use it. one positive thing: i may put the title on a t-shirt for pride.

a while back i picked up a small box of books from the sidewalk, partly for my own pleasure (there was exactly one book in the box that i ended up wanting to read), and partly to save them from a rainstorm that was beginning. some of the books went to friends, some to a couple of places where i volunteer, and a few remained that looked so horrible, their covers had to be scanned. this is one of those awful books, and instead of reading it, i decided to make up a story to fit the cover.

ABOUT AUBERGE SCRIPT
It took me a long time, but I think I now understand why people of my generation and older feel the need to frame current events in an historical context or precedents, while most of the young couldn't care less about what happened ten years ago, let alone centuries back. After living for a few decades, you get to a point when time seems to be moving quite fast, and it’s humbling to see that your entire existence so far can be summed up in a paragraph or two which may or may not be useful to whoever ends up reading the stuff anyhow. I suppose one way to cope with the serenity of aging is trying to convince yourself that your life and work are really an extension of millenia of a species striving to accept, adapt to, and improve the human condition through advancing the many facets of civilization -- basically making things more understandable and comfortable for ourselves and each other while we go about doing whatever it is we are trying to do. And when you do finally convince yourself of that, history becomes a source of much solace and even a little premonition, so you end up spending more time there.
Going far back into the history of what I do, one can easily see that for the most part it was ruled by the quill. Western civilization’s writing was done with quill pens for more than thirteen centuries and with newer instruments for about two. By the mid-18th century, the height of the quill experience, various calligraphy techniques could be discerned and writing styles were arranged in distinct categories. There are many old books that showcase the history of it all. I recommend looking at some whenever the urge comes calling and you have to get away from backlit worlds.
Multiple sources usually help me get a better perspective on the range of a specific script genre, so many books served as reference to this quill font of mine. Late 17th century French and Spanish professional calligraphy guides were great aides in understanding the ornamental scope of what the scribes were doing back then. The French books, with their showings of the Ronde, Bâtarde and Coulée alphabets, were the ones I referenced the most. So I decided to name the font Auberge, a French word for hotel or inn, because I really felt like a guest in different French locales (and times) when I going through all that stuff.
Because it is multi-sourced, Auberge does not strictly fit in a distinct quill pen category. Instead, it shows strong hints of both Bâtarde and Coulée alphabets. And like most of my fonts, it is an exercise in going overboard with alternates, swashes, and ornamental devices. Having worked with it for a while, I find it most suitable for display calligraphic setting in general, but it works especially well for things like wine labels and event invitations. It also shines in the original quill pen application purpose, which of course was stationery. Also, as it just occurred to me, if you find yourself in a situation where you have to describe your entire life in 50 words or less, you may as well make it look good and swashy, so Auberge would probably be a good fit there as well.
This is one quill script that no large bird had to die for.
A few technical notes
The Auberge Script Pro version includes 1800 glyphs, everything is included there. Also latin language support. We recommend you to use the latest design application to have full access to alternates, swashes, small caps, ornaments, etc. The images from the gallery uses this version. For better results use the fonts with “liga” feature on.
Awards
During 2014 the early develop of Auberge Script was chosen to be part of Tipos Latinos, the most important type exhibition in South America.

About Heráldica Script
We are proud to add a very complex and new font to our collection.
Ornamented scripts are a Koziupa/Paul specialty, and Heraldica is one of their most expressive. It attains the very definition of deluxe by conjoining the classic thin-and-thick script treatment with thin-only counterpart strokes, then it goes the extra mile with a varied complement of overlaid flourishes. The usual assortment of multiple alternates and ending forms pushes it even further in class and versatility.
Monograms, logos, jewelry packaging and book covers are only a few of the possibilities with such a high-end script.
Typeface design: Angel Koziupa & Ale Paul for Sudtipos.
License the typeface with a Lted. Time 30% exclusive discount here.

SUDTIPOS. NEW RELEASE. AUGUST 09.
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Cold winter in South America is a perfect time to produce a fresh new font.
We are happy to announce the release of Diplomatic .
Diplomatic is another script from the Koziupa and Paul duo. It relies on calligraphic simplicity to achieve artistic sophistication. Prominent ascenders and descenders work alongside calculated but casual strokes to produce an unmistakably elegant typesetting.
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
We also want to share with you that our font Adios Script was nominated for the »Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany«. The Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany is the country‘s highest distinction in the field of design. Yes... a nomination is enough to be more happy!

Wherever you are, at the hot north hemisphere or at the chilly south, have a nice month!
This cover called to us from an antique bookshop window in Schöneberg yesterday.
“Reporter zwischen Spree und Panke”
(Reporter between Spree and Panke rivers)
By Klaus Bechler. Published by Das Neue Berlin, 1953.
Klaus Beuchler (1926–92) was a German journalist and writer. He lived most of his life in East Berlin. This was his first of over 30 books, many about Berlin.
I can’t find much about Herbert Prüget, just that he did many covers for Das Neue Berlin and illustrated a few children’s books, usually credited as “H. Prüget”.
But here’s a cool fact: he was also a graphic designer and is credited here with the 1957 logo for Sachsenring, East German manufacturer of the Trabant.

About the typeface
—
There is plenty of lyric and literature about looking over one’s shoulder in contemplation. What would you have done differently if you knew then what you know now? This is the kind of question that comes out of nowhere. When it does and whether its context is personal or professional make very little difference. It’s a question that can cause emotions to rise and passions to run hot. It can trigger priority shifts and identity crises. It’s never easy to answer.
Three years ago, I published a font called Semilla. My aim with that was to distill the work of Bentele, a lettering artist from early 1950s Germany. Picking such an obscure figure back then was my way of pondering the meaning and efficiency of objectivity in a world where real human events and existences are inevitably filtered through decades of unavoidably subjective written, printed and oral history. And maybe to pat myself on the back for surviving surprises mild and pleasant.
Having been fortunate enough to follow my professional whims for quite some time now, I took another, longer look at my idea of distilling Bentele’s work again. I suppose the concepts of established history and objectivity can become quite malleable when personal experience is added to the mix. I say that because there I was, three years later, second-guessing myself and opining that Bentele’s work can be distilled differently, in a manner more suited to current cultural angles. So I embarked on that mission, and Bowling Script is the result. I realize that it’s difficult to reconcile this soft and happy calligraphic outcome with the introspection I've blathered about so far, but it is what is. I guess even self-created first world problems need to be resolved somehow, and the resolution can happen in mysterious ways.
Bowling Script is what people who like my work would expect from me. It’s yet another script loaded with all kinds of alternation, swashing and over-the-top stuff. All of that is in here. These days I think I just do all that stuff without even blinking. But there are two additional twists.
The more noticeable one is ornamental: The stroke endings in the main font are of the typical sharp and curly variety found in sign painting, while the other font complements that with ball endings, sometimes with an added-on-afterwards impression rather than an extension of the actual stroke. In the philosophical terms I was mumbling earlier, this is the equivalent of alternate realities in a world of historical reduxes that by their very nature can never properly translate original fact.
The second twist has to do with the disruption of angular rhythm in calligraphic alphabets. Of course, this is the kind of lettering where the very concept of rhythm can be quite flexible, but it still counts for something, and experimenting with angular white space in a project of a very dense footprint was irresistible. After playing for a bit, I decided that it would interesting to include the option of using optically back-slanted forms in the fonts. Most scripts out there, including mine, have a rhythm sonically comparable to four-to-the-floor club beats. So the weirdly angled stuff here is your chance to do the occasional drumroll. Everyone knows we need one of those sometimes.
Bowling Script and Bowling Script Balls fonts comes with 1600 characters and features extended Latin-based language support. There are also a basic version of both fonts without all the alternates and extra OpenType features. Bowling family ships in cross-platform OpenType format.
