Alfie was designed by Jim Ford and published by Monotype.
Alfie contains 5 styles and family package options.
Alfie is lively, friendly, inviting and easy on the eyes. What more could you want in a script? How about four flavors of the same design?
Alfie Script is a delightful connecting script with a touch of comfortable elegance. Use it for everything from social announcements to headlines and packaging.
Alfie Casual is a little more laid-back with letters standing on their own. It works great in short blocks of text copy, subheads and navigational links.
Alfie Informal has spirited serifs and its own demeanor, while
Alfie Small Caps does a fine job of supporting its other siblings. There's an immediacy to words and messages set in these lighthearted confections.
Jim Ford was practicing drawing with a new brush pen when the inspiration for Alfie came to him. He had filled several pages in a notebook with letters and, at one point, realized that there might be a typeface among them. As it turned out, there were four. The process, however, wasn't choosing one design and modifying it. The makings of all the designs were on the pages. It was just a matter of culling out the right collection of characters to build the foundations for the four flavors of Alfie.
Because they share the same family roots, each design in the Alfie family can be paired and intermixed. Ford admits that there's a hint of Emil Klumpp's 1950s Murray Hill typeface (https://www.myfonts.com/fonts/bitstream/murray-hill/) in the Alfie family. Just enough to give the design a 50s vibe. (Some fashions never go out of style.)
