Typography is the art and technique of arranging type to make written language legible, readable, and appealing when displayed. The arrangement of type involves selecting typefaces, point sizes, line lengths, line-spacing, and letter-spacing, and adjusting the space between pairs of letters.

Designer's Notes

This is another font that started life as a logo design project. The project was shelved and my intention was to finish the font as a standalone project, but other commitments have made this impossible.

The font was originally going to contain only lower case characters, but I've mapped a set of characters to the upper case slots, which contains a few capital forms.

Although the latest version of this font offers a reasonable range of accented characters, it still currently has a very limited punctuation/symbols set. Given its limitations, I'm making Cirqua v2.1 available free for personal use with a commercial licence priced at just $2 (USD). Licences can be purchased by clicking the 'donate' button.

All feedback is welcome and, if you desperately need any other characters added, contact steve@explogos.com and I'll see what I can do.

Thanks!
