About DC Design

DC Design is the foundry of Drena Clementino. She is a Southern California native who has an extensive art background. Studying traditional art with renowned artists such as Milford Zornes resulted in a love of shape as well as a strong sense of design. While presently working in digital media and design, she credits her traditional art background for the ability to produce quality multi-media design. Thus DC Design Media was a natural evolution of the artistic process. Most recently a multi-media project required a type of font that was based on medieval miniscule calligraphy. Finding no available fonts that matched the exact requirements, one was created. This font is based on 14th - 15th century Bastarde calligraphy, has no elaborate flourishes but rather looks like a scribes hand and works well with illuminated script designs. Creating Bastardre Hand, has been a rewarding challenge and forward step for DC Design.
