Greenstone Trial font

Extended information

Greenstone Font is a modern serif typeface inspired by sleek and exotic style. Greenstone interprets Oscar Ogg’s vernacular lettering style through the lens of American and British stone carving, such as the work of John Howard Benson and David Kindersley. The connection between these sources is reminiscent of the intercultural dialogue between the American and British type design industries in the 19th to 20th centuries, a period when many designers were drawing influence from their peers across the Atlantic. While perfectly serviceable as a model alphabet for carving in stone, Greenstone is a typographic expression of an ancient and sacred tradition of lettering, in which the plethora of exquisite vernacular styles have developed over the centuries thanks to the improvisational nature of use-specific composition.

Greenstone Font is free for personal use. So, if you want to access more features and its full license contact sharptypedesigner
