Spira

Some words from Font Bureau:

Calligraphers of the Italian Renaissance adapted ancient models to create “italic” and “roman”, a consciously dramatic departure from standard Church Gothic.

Punchcutters followed calligraphy until the French court adopted the formality of Aldus & Griffo’s Aldine Bembo model.

Andy Stockley has returned to the vivacity of 15th-century calligraphy, capturing the soaring spirit of the Venetian originals like no other revival.
