CA El Amor specimen from Cape Arcona

A reversed oblique display face in two layerable styles, built for comics, Halloween and spooky graphic work.

About

Designed by Thomas Schostok, CA El Amor offers Regular and Fill styles intended for layered use, where the Fill sits behind or offset from the Regular outline to produce depth and dimension. The reversed oblique gives it a lively, energetic slant that suits poster and headline work rather than body copy. Despite its display focus, the character set is unusually broad for the genre, covering Central European and Western Latin encodings across 333 glyphs.

Classification
