Basically, by widening the uprights and maintaining the thin cross-bars it takes on more of a script-like quality, hence the name. Slanting the letters reinforces the script illusion and consequently brings a wider application to the font’s original format.
When designing the Somatype alphabet originally, I always envisaged maximizing on its potential by creating an incised version. This rendition not only emphasizes the implied script qualities within the name but brings out the softer, feminine side of the typeface. The evolutionary process creates a different looking font altogether and in turn the slanted version emphasizes the elegant quality even more so.
