Handstyle Lettering: From Calligraphy to Typography
Victionary
For some time in the distant past, hand-lettering used to be a highly-regarded skill to master and was ubiquitous via publications and public signages. Although society relies heavily on keyboards and screens for communication today, a growing number of creative practitioners have been busy reviving the seemingly-lost art in recent years, in a bid to return the sincerity and warmth of the human touch to our predominantly digital lives. Brimming with character, hand-lettering serves as the bridge between old-school calligraphy and modern typography to bring nuance back into an age of uniformity.
Rereleased in conjunction with Victionary's 20th anniversary, the 2021 boxset edition of Handstyle Lettering comes with a beginner-friendly calligraphy pen-and-nib set crafted by renowned British companies Manuscript and D. Leonardt & Co. which - coupled with new projects, interviews, and an expanded step-by-step guide - serves to help aspiring creatives kickstart their hand-lettering journey.
