A propos de Erotica Police Family

“A picture is worth a thousand words” and here, that’s more than true. Take a look at Erotica’s Booklet; Erotica’s Poster Design and Erotica’s User’s Guide before reading below. THE STYLES The difference between Pro and Std styles is the quantity of glyphs. Therefore, Pro styles include all the decorative alternates and ligatures while Std styles are a reduced version of Pro ones. Big and Small styles were thought for better printing results. While Big is recommended to be printed in big sizes, Small may be printed in tiny sizes and will still show its hairlines well. INTRODUCTION I have always wondered if the circle could ever be considered as an imperfect shape. Thousands of years have passed and we still consider circles as synonyms of infinite beauty. Some believe that there is something intrinsically “divine” that could be found in them. Sensuality is many times related to perfectly shaped strong curves, exuberant forms and a big contrasts. Erotica is a font created with this in mind. THE PROCESS This story begins one fine day of March in 2012. I was looking for something new. Something which would express the deep love I feel regarding calligraphy in a new way. At that time, I was practicing a lot of roundhand, testing and feeling different kinds of nibs; hearing the sometimes sharp, sometimes soft, sound of them sliding on the paper. This kind of calligraphy has some really strict rules: An even pattern of repetition is required, so you have to be absolutely aware of the pressure of the flexible pen; and of the distance between characters. Also, learning copperplate can be really useful to understand about proportion in letters and how a minimum change of it can drastically affect the look of the word and text. Many times I would forget about type-design and I would let myself go(1): Nothing like making the pen dance when adding some accolades above and below the written word. Once something is mastered, you are able to break some rules. At least, that’s my philosophy. (2) After some research, I found that the world was in need of a really sexy yet formal copperplate. (3) I started Erotica with the idea of taking some rules of this style to the extreme. Some characters were drawn with a pencil first because what I had in mind was impossible to be made with a pen. (4) Finding a graceful way to combine really thick thicks with really thin hairlines with satisfactory results demanded months of tough work: The embryo of Erotica was a lot more bolder than now and had a shorter x-height. Changing proportions of Erotica was crucial for its final look. The taller it became the sexier it looked. Like women again? The result is a font filled with tons of alternates which can make the user think he/she is the actual designer of the word/phrase due to the huge amount of possibilities when choosing glyphs. To make Erotica work well in small sizes too, I designed Erotica Small which can be printed in tiny sizes without any problems. For a more elegant purpose, I designed Erotica Inline, with exactly the same features you can find in the other styles. After finishing these styles, I needed a partner for Erotica. Inspired again in some old calligraphic books I found that Bickham used to accompany his wonderful scripts with some ornated roman caps. Erotica Capitals follows the essentials of those capitals and can be used with or without its alternates to accompany Erotica. In 2013, Erotica received a Certificate of Excellence in Type Design in the 59th TDC Type Directors Club Typeface Design Competition. Meet Erotica, beauty and elegance guaranteed. Notes (1) It is supossed that I'm a typographer rather than a calligrapher, but the truth is that I'm in the middle. Being a graphic designer makes me a little stubborn sometimes. But, I found that the more you don't think of type rules, the more graceful and lively pieces of calligraphy can be done. (2) “Know the forms well before you attempt to make them” used to say E. A. Lupfer, a master of this kind of script a century ago. And I would add “And once you know them, it’s time to fly...” (3) Some script fonts by my compatriots Sabrina Lopez, Ramiro Espinoza and Alejandro Paul deserve a mention here because of their undeniable beauty. The fact that many great copperplate fonts come from Argentina makes me feel really proud. Take a look at: Parfumerie, Medusa, Burgues, Poem and Bellisima. (4) Some calligraphers, graphic and type designer experimented in this field in the mid-to-late 20th century and made a really playful style out of it: Letters show a lot of personality and sometimes they seem drawn rather than written. I want to express my sincere admiration to the fantastic Herb Lubalin, and his friends Tony DiSpigna, Tom Carnase, and of course my fellow countryman Ricardo Rousselot. All of them, amazing.

À propos Lián Types

Comme le dit mon chanteur de rock argentin préféré, Gustavo Cerati, Buenos Aires est "La ciudad de la furia" - la ville de la fureur : Buenos Aires est "La ciudad de la furia" - la ville de la fureur", a déclaré Maximiliano Sproviero à propos de sa ville natale, l'un des principaux centres de la typographie et du lettrage en Amérique latine, dans l'interview qu'il a accordée à Les créatifs . "Cette ville a tant à offrir, que ce soit le jour ou la nuit. Elle est toujours en mouvement et, si vous êtes suffisamment sensible, elle peut vous remplir l'esprit d'idées". Maximiliano a découvert sa passion pour la typographie alors qu'il étudiait le graphisme à l'université de Buenos Aires, en Argentine. Alors qu'un innocent passe-temps police s'est transformé en addiction, sa carrière de dessinateur de caractères s'est développée à un rythme incroyablement rapide, en grande partie grâce à sa fascination pour la calligraphie. Il a fondé Lián Types en 2008 et il ne lui a fallu que deux ans pour développer sa propre approche de l'art, mêlant son intérêt pour la calligraphie à une habileté croissante dans la numérisation des courbes les plus difficiles. "La vérité est que je fais aussi de mon mieux pour être un bon calligraphe, et je n'aime pas faire polices ce que je ne peux pas faire moi-même à la main. Mes lettres, c'est moi !" Inspiré par de nombreux styles de calligraphie, Lián Types compte aujourd'hui parmi les fonderies les plus prospères, spécialisées dans les caractères d'écriture polices et les caractères d'affichage ornementés. "Concevoir des caractères d'écriture n'est pas un jeu", déclare-t-il. "Ce ne sont pas des caractères faciles. Ils ne sont pas destinés aux débutants, comme certains peuvent le penser. Une écriture bien faite est comme une merveille que l'on ne peut s'empêcher de regarder". Maximiliano a remporté des prix prestigieux et son site polices a été adopté par certaines des publications les mieux conçues. Ses polices de caractères les plus vendues sont Selfie, Brand et Heroe. "Comme nous le dit l'histoire : les mots écrits peuvent être aussi précieux que n'importe quelle autre œuvre d'art.
