Here’s the latest sampler of work on our Secombe project…
A Name Change

The project that we have presented here before as ‘Ecclesham’ is nearing completion, but we have decided on a name change. We felt that Ecclesham, while a name that matches the quaint charm of this extreme Tuscan decorative face, might be considered a bit of a mouthful. Thus we’ve settled on a rather shorrter name, ‘Eccles’. Any suggestion that our chief designer was daydreaming about Eccles Cakes (again…) is quite without foundation!

The Corsham family is now available on Myfonts. Corsham was inspired by traditional stonemason’s engraved lettering designs. Designed to be used alone, or in combination with our Corton family, ithas wonderfully lively air, with distinctive lively serifs and beautifully swashed downstrokes. Four faces are offered-regular bold and black weights as well as a condensed form. All faces include a range of Opentype features, including ligatures and old-style numerals. The Corsham faces merge ‘olde-worlde’ charm with fun character, yet remaining clear and legible for text use.

Metropole, which has just launched on Fontspring, is an exercise in combing the curvaceous lines of the Art Nouveau with the solid character and simplicity of Art Deco. The resulting three display faces combine the spirit of the 20s and of the thirties, creating lively fun display faces for headings, signage and banners. These characterful faces with clear simple outlines are also ideal to lend a distinctive air to your web pages, or to create a distinctive ‘house-style’ for lettering.
