Emil Bertells Bayamo is a contemporary, digital take on the brush script tradition. It echoes the loose forms and energetic personality of sign painted letters, tapping into the current nostalgia for hand-drawn type.
I think most script fonts nowadays are either some kind of modern calligraphy, or synthetic/mechanical scripts, says Bertell.
This one leans more towards a classic American sign painting tradition. More Contextual alternates ensure that lowercase characters change depending whats next to them, mimicking the more varied word shapes created by sign writers.
Well suited for branding projects, packaging and headlines, Bayamo also pairs well with strong sans serif, and other typefaces with angular forms.
