Esca™ font family
Designed by Jim Ford in 2015
Esca is a display typeface designed by Jim Ford with highly compressed proportions yet with a subtle calligraphic touch. The design started with the aim of fitting 4 letters onto one sheet of paper and the resulting typeface keeps that tight proportion. The Esca design is mixed case and is ideally suited for logos, short headlines, and album covers. It has a great architectural feel to it that makes it suitable in signage applications and large scale settings. This Lite version of the typeface was designed as part of a font marathon over the course of 3.5 days in Monotype’s NY office. Monotype is proud to support Room to Read’s work in literacy and girls’ education through our font marathon initiative.
