What is Calligraphy
Recently Trending Calligraphy
Calligraphy means "beautiful writing" in Greek.
It is a technique of writing the alphabet using special pens or brush pens in a uniquely beautiful touch. ♩
In terms of making letters look beautiful, it is an art similar to Japan's "Shodo."
Italic, Blackletter Gothic, and Roman Capitals are some famous traditional Western calligraphic styles.*
Currently Popular is Modern Calligraphy
Recently, what has been trending is modern calligraphy, which has evolved from the traditional Western calligraphy mentioned earlier,
written in a flowing, cursive-like manner.
Though the height balance may be uneven and distorted, it is a very stylish font with artistic quality. ♡
It’s also a staple for wedding welcome boards and paper items. ♩
Introducing Handwritten-Style Calligraphy Fonts
Calligraphy is a "skill" of writing beautiful letters, so the premise is that it must be handwritten.*
However,
・Many brides may feel they cannot write calligraphy well.
・They don’t have time to practice.
・They don’t know who to ask.
For those brides, I recommend using free fonts as a last resort. ♩
While the downloaded and printed letters cannot technically be called calligraphy,
they provide a "calligraphy-like" aesthetic that looks stylish and can be used on various items, making it convenient. ♡
