Skay – Handgeschriebene Bubble-Schrift für Beauty & Fashion

Works best for

Beauty, fashion and lifestyle labels, restaurants, and anything that wants a young, organic look; logos and short lines, since it is caps only.

Pairs with

Goji for lowercase text next to skay’s capitals.

Design notes

• Uppercase only: the lowercase keys give the same capitals, so text always sets in caps.
• Round, blunt stroke ends and one thickness within a letter. The letters are hand-drawn rather than geometric: widths vary (M and W wide, S and E narrow), strokes cross loosely in K and X, the G has a hooked bar.
• The A and V are soft triangles, the O and Q true rounds, the 4 is open at the top.
• Three stylistic sets with alternate A, B, D, M, O and R.
• The Black weight is where the bubble reading lives: counters shrink to slots and the letters sit almost touching.
• Similar in register to the Skims logo. A bubble-style font for restaurants and anything that wants a young, organic look.
• Mojomox also customises it to a client’s designs and text instructions.
