Freehand is a type system developed by Debora Manetti and Francesco Canovaro to replicate the natural appearance of handcrafted brush writing. Open type ligature substitutions are used to arbitrarily alternate in between different versions of each character to offer the final output a realistic, irregular look.
The main typeface of the system is a wide freestyle brush cursive, including over 4 hundreds of alternate version for characters and double letter ligatures.
A "brush easy" variation is consisted of without the replacements if you need more constant appearance in your design and better control over letter variation through the glyph panel.
The 2 freehand brush weights are matched by two sets of icons of matching style, one for ui style with navigation icons and one with food icons.
The system also consists of a blockletter family in 2 weights, to be utilized together with the other font styles to produce variation and contrast in your design.
Freehand covers over 40 languages that utilize the Latin alphabet, with a full variety of accents and diacritics.
