Englewood

Englewood is an expressive script inspired by the calligraphic hand of Philip Grushkin. Richard Lipton has always admired this somewhat loose but disciplined style and felt it was worth keeping alive in a typeface that could accurately emulate the spontaneity and warmth of these letterforms. Lipton hoped to honor Mr. Grushkin with a design that works exceptionally well for an invitation, a menu, or in any display setting that calls for an informal calligraphic hand. This single-weight display script includes small caps — a rarity in a handwritten script — for flexible typesetting, along with alternates and ligatures to simulate the appearance of spontaneous writing.
