A graceful script whose thicker horizontals create a wave-like rhythm — hence the name. Seashore is loosely based on an “eccentric” (left-leaning) penmanship style of the late 19th century. Used mainly by professional “engrossers” in certificates and tributes, or by society ladies in their stationery and invitations, it sent a message of true refinement, as the style would have been only been mastered after the more common business, Spencerian, and standard ornamental styles. In fact, unusual script styles were in such demand that type foundries of the era exploded with metal-type knockoffs of increasing fanciness.
Seashore includes a wide variety of swash capitals, alternate endings, and contextual ligatures, over 900 glyphs in all. Seashore is best used in short display settings — in names and addresses on formal invitations, in menus and food packaging, or fashion and beauty contexts.
Sudtipos was founded in 2002 as a collective of graphic designers passionate about type. Since the beginning, Sudtipos has delivered typographic solutions to design challenges in product packaging, advertising, and corporate identity. Over the years the group has grown in number, skills, and influence – Sudtipos faces have appeared in high-profile campaigns for Coca-Cola and Levi’s, and in the pages of The New York Times, and the group has created custom faces for international clients such as The History Channel and C&A. But the original vision of Sudtipos remains: to translate the aesthetics of culture and commerce into technically sophisticated typefaces that help creative professionals create work that impresses clients, attracts customers, and builds brands.
Sudtipos typefaces have received awards from the Type Directors Club, Communication Arts, Tipos Latinos, and others.
