Querencia

Querencia is a connected brush script with long swashes and weighted downstrokes.




The letters lean at a steady italic angle and connect through generous entry and exit strokes, so a word is read more as a single gesture than as a row of separate forms. The lowercase sits low and even; the uppercase opens up with wider loops where the hand had room to move. It reads as something painted rather than drawn, closer to a sign painter's brush than to a calligrapher's nib.
It is the kind of lettering you can picture on a hand-painted awning early on a Saturday, or scrawled on the side of a paper bag by someone who has been writing this same word for years.
The font is built with advanced OpenType functionality and guaranteed top-notch quality, containing stylistic and contextual alternates, ligatures and more automatic and manual features; all to give you full control and customizability. It has extensive lingual support, covering all Latin-based languages, from North Europa to South Africa, from America to South-East Asia. It contains all characters and symbols you'll ever need, including all punctuation and numbers.
