Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Fantasy Autumn.
Fantasy Autumn is a hairline-light minimalist sans with tall slender stems, a high waistline, a single-storey a and generous air around the letters, drawn for calm architectural layout rather than display impact. Because the stroke is very light, the face needs roughly 20 mm before it survives print, and it is at its best on smooth uncoated stocks where the line stays continuous. It is a titling and caption face for galleries, studios and editorial work, and it should never be set small on absorbent paper.

Gallery poster, architecture monograph and exhibition caption
Feather-light stems read as drafting rather than display, which suits a gallery or a monograph. Tall proportions stack a title in a narrow column with air around it.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Poster A1, title 160 mm, details 24/30 pt, 40 mm margins. Monograph 240 x 300 mm, title 54 pt, captions 9/13 pt. Caption card 100 x 60 mm, object 9 pt, data 7 pt.
Pre-production check
A 7 pt hairline on a caption card disappears at 40 cm under gallery light. Keep captions in a heavier companion and reserve this face for the object name, checking one at its viewing distance.
Studio card, product label and boutique signage
Light stems read as a quiet brand mark, which is what an architecture or ceramics studio wants. The high waistline gives a short word a calm rhythm.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Card 85 x 55 mm, name 9 pt, role 6 pt, 6 mm margins. Label 70 x 40 mm, name 8 pt, 3 mm border and 3 mm die margin. Sign 600 x 200 mm, word 90 mm, 50 mm margins with 20 mm from the frame.
Pre-production check
Cards are printed on uncoated stock that draws ink, and a hairline at 9 pt thickens unevenly. Print one proof on the actual card, and move the name to a heavier cut if the stroke mottles.
Workshop invitation, seed-catalogue cover and botanical-fair card
Airy letterforms read as a considered invitation rather than a decorated one, which suits a studio workshop. Tall stems hold a long workshop name in a narrow format.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Invitation A6, heading 14 mm, details 4.5 mm, 12 mm margins. Catalogue cover 170 x 240 mm, title 46 pt, 18 mm margins. Card 105 x 148 mm, heading 16 mm, list 7/10 pt.
Pre-production check
A6 invitations are trimmed from a larger sheet and a hairline crossing the trim gets cut through. Keep 8 mm clear of every trim edge, and check one finished card against the bleed.
