"Once fallen out of favor when many opted for neat, accurate and efficient type printing enabled by letterpress and later digital press, hand-rendered letterforms are making a comeback, reminding us of what we have lost in the digital age. In three sections "Handstyle Lettering" delves into the booming scene and see how contemporary culture perfectly blends with this age-old art. From bespoke logo designs to tailor-made artwork for brands, editorials, and marketing campaigns, 42 artists present their very brand of penmanship through interviews, a diverse lettering showcase and a step-by-step guide on how to perfect the craft in distinctive styles with different tools."
