Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Malley Jacklist.
The script carries Malley and Jacklist with the word duet set between them in a smaller, plainer style, and the face is a modern casual script: the M opens with two rounded arches, the a is a closed bowl, the l and the k rise into loops and the y drops a tail, while the whole block bounces so a ten-letter name still reads as lettering rather than a slogan. The second face is a light sans with rounded forms, used for the small lines that surround the block, which shows how a casual script and a plain sans can share a layout without a third face. Small capital lines at the corners note the features: ligatures, uppercase and lowercase, multilingual support. Malley Jacklist is a duo for packaging, covers and brand marks with an outdoor tone, and it needs a short name and a large size.

Sign for a woodland wedding
A casual script over a plain sans gives a woodland sign two voices, and the pair covers the greeting and the practical line in one purchase.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 600 by 400 mm board: set the greeting at 96 pt in the script, set the line at 28 pt in the sans with 24 mm of clear ground between, and hold 22 mm of border on all four sides.
Pre-production check
Two faces with very different weights can fight; print one board at the final size and check which line reads first before the set.
Cover line for a travel feature
A casual script on a photographic cover looks drawn on site, and the sans companion keeps the credit and the date quiet beneath it.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 230 by 300 mm cover: set the cover line at 76 pt in the script, set the date at 11 pt in the sans with 22 mm of clear ground, and hold 20 mm of margin on all four sides.
Pre-production check
A cream script over pale foliage loses contrast; print one cover and check every letter separates from the image before the run.
Label for an outdoor brand
The pair suits a label that has to survive a wet environment while still looking hand made, and the sans handles the specification line.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 60 by 90 mm label: set the brand at 17 pt in the script, set the spec at 6 pt in the sans with 6 mm of clear ground, and hold 4 mm of margin on all four sides.
Pre-production check
Small sans lines under a fat script can look like fine print; print one label on the real material and check the hierarchy before the order.
