FONT
Using Stuart’s handwriting finger painting we created individual PSDs of each letter to set all the headlines in InDesign. This allowed simple translations, using the same files for French and Italian.
Download the font if you’d like to have a play. It’s upper case only and used at your own risk. DOWNLOAD.
