Siren Script Pro Font

Publisher: Canada Type

Siren Script takes its cue from BB&S's Stationers Semiscript (metal, 1899) and its countless imitations/inspirations from throughout the 20th century, particularly a range of uncredited film deals with from the 1960s.

What makes this type of script stand apart in the genre is its blending of grown majuscules with primarily suppressed, standard minuscules. The result is a balance in between formal and casual lettering, as if the letterer is applying his or her found out art without entering into full-throttle calligraphy. The message is clearly and with dignity delivered, and the creative endeavor is totally valued without causing coronaries.

The Siren Script household is available in four full typefaces, and a fifth one that includes alternates, ending letters, and some ligatures. Siren Script Pro integrates all 5 typefaces into a single one of over 880 characters, which includes programs for push-button stylistic alternates, class-based kerning, and other glyph palette conveniences.
