Perec Scripte
Pampatype · Alejandro Lo Celso · 2023
A vertical script typeface by Alejandro Lo Celso offered in unlinked, linked and decorative variants across six weights, designed as part of a tribute superfamily to writer Georges Perec.
About
The family splits into three distinct styles: Perec Scripte 1 (unlinked) for greater legibility at smaller sizes, Perec Scripte 2 (linked) for a more flowing connected hand, and Perec Scripte Deco, which adds three hand-drawn stripes throughout the alphabet for titles, signs and logos. Each style carries an extensive OpenType feature set including contextual alternates, swashes, ligatures, multiple numeral sets and Pinyin Latin support, with glyph counts reaching over 2,000 per font in the linked variant. The family sits within the broader Perec superfamily alongside Perec and Perec Ludique, all intended for combined use in expression-rich editorial layouts.
Classification
A vertical script typeface with no slant, placing it firmly in the upright cursive tradition. The family splits into unlinked and linked styles alongside a decorative variant, all sharing script letterform characteristics.
