Dewdrop

by Tommy Truong


Dewdrop is a dramatic italic typeface inspired by calligraphic forms and the materiality of ink on paper. Delicate tendrils form sweeping arcs, transitioning into swollen endpoints. The overall shape and rhythm of the ascenders and descenders is reminiscent of a thicket blown by the wind, and the many bulbs at their ends evoke a sense of a lushness or abundance.
