Morta Brute font

Morta is a handwritten unicase typeface with a slight calligraphic influence. Its design, like a centuries-old cold dark stones, has carved edges and polished corners, and represented by two styles: more legible Brute for general use, and more contrast Grace for large text size. While working on concept sketches, I synthesized such theses as historical and cartoon, mystical and attractive. What if I mirror the slant of an Italic writing in the other direction to create the feeling of looking from the other side, from behind the mirror? And if I use some calligraphic techniques and strokes? I worked to create a deliberately irregular shape with a minimal use of straight lines. At the same time, I avoided sharp corners in order to express the form chiseled by many centuries, like a stones polished by sea water. The Morta font is all about journey and unknown, so let the adventure begin! --- Styles: Brute. The complete family is available here: Scripts: Latin, Greek, Cyrillic. Languages: 480 .
