Osgard Font is a contemporary take on the traditional blackletter style, combining boldness with readability. Forging the two creates a far softer, more versatile, fashion based typeface; with beautifully distinct qualities. Strong influences came from The Ribble Valley, not far from our location, where J.R.R.Tolkien worked on The Lord of the Rings. Landmarks such as Stonyhurst, the River Shirebourn and the surrounding areas are great places for Medieval/Fantastical inspiration.
