Many calligraphers will agree that Roman Capitals is one of the most beautiful yet difficult hands to master. Its beauty is in its simplicity of form and structure, yet understanding the form and structure and applying them skillfully can take years of mindful practice. Turquoise is a typeface based on my Capitalis romana’s practice with a with flexible broad edged brush and gouache. The main concept was based on the fundamental strokes that is common to study when you practice Roman letters. That’s why many Serifs had these unfinished terminal serifs. The goal was to designed roman capitals that looked smoothly designed with brush and not carved. During the lowercase process I was following Foundational calligraphy, still with a flat brush. Turquoise contains small caps, many discretionary ligatures, ornaments, swashes and several brushy nature inspired ornaments accessible via Opentype; is ideally suited for headlines or body text in advertising, packaging and visual identities, its delicate shapes & curves, endings give a sweet, elegant and harmonic feeling. Turquoise Capitals were adjusted and redesigned at “Tipobrda” workshop in Slovenia.The flags designed for this font project show one of the richest island of the Mediterranean where my parents are from: Sicily. This southern Italian region has so unique spots like Stromboli part of the Aeolian Islands and the Pelagie Islands . Those pictures in use where taken this year. Enjoy the sun, the serifs, the water and its Turquoise colors. 

The brush is mighter than the sword.
