The six faces of the Wellingborough family are now virtually complete and will shortly be released, so we thought we’d show you some examples of the six faces (Wellingborough Regular, Text, Italic, Small Capitals, Flourish and Capitals) in action.
Wellingbourough is a family of six late-Victorian inspired faces, principally for display work and headings but also including a text form suitable for use in ‘feature’ paragraphs and short documents. The regular, small capitals an italic forms provides good clear headings, with a modicum of individualism and flair about them, while the Flourish an capital faces carry the family to rather more elaborate-yet still readily legible- heights. The italic form also works well alone to suggest a sense of flow and movement. The whole family is ideally suited for poster and advertising work, as well as book and record covers and period themed signage.
