Created by Alejandro Paul, Bibliophile Script is a script font family. This typeface has two styles and was published by Sudtipos.

A friend when jokingly informed me that what I really do is mine extinct arts for parts to use in modern things, like going to the scrapyard to get bumpers, quarter-panels and control panels off of Datsuns and Ponys to construct a glossy brand-new Ferrari. I still type of grin at that, however I definitely do spend a lot of time taking a look at old things and imagining methods they would work today.

This shiny brand-new Ferrari here is called Bibliophile, and it includes scrap stack parts from various pages by Louis Prang, the Prussian-American printer and publisher who influenced my Prangs font styles. This is my second engagement with the late 19th century man, and it's rather a bit more intricate than simply an italic Didone with a linked lowercase. Bibliophile marries Round Hand calligraphy with Italian capitals, 2 designs seldom passed on in the exact same alphabet, but interact perfectly when integrated well. When you combine them well with a couple of long-practised techniques of the trade, then blend in a couple of trusted functions from my previous work over the years, you get my normal crazy vitality, like 17 different shapes for the d, 21 various kinds for the y, endings, starts, swashes, ornaments, and so on. It's no secret that I can get carried away when I'm so taken in by an idea.

Bibliophile likewise includes a strong weight, something I'm constantly reluctant to do with something as adventurous and complicated as the structure of this historical mashup. But I could not repel the concept of increasing the contrast while keeping the hairlines in a lowercase this narrow. Part of it was the interest about the outcome, and part was the sheer challenge of it. I think it ended up OK.

Words set in either weight will show delicateness and beauty, and the more time you spend inside the font style and micro-manage the setting, the more ways you will find to amplify either. Bibliophile can as soft or elegant as you want it to be. This is the type of alphabet that fits well in fashion marketing and high-end product packaging, from the very controlled to the super-exquisite.

Enjoy the gleaming brand-new vehicle made with newly polished old parts.
