Visual anatomy & craft review

Letterform structure
of Simple Farmhouse.

The two words are stacked and the drawing is handwriting at a light weight: the stroke is even, the letters are tall and narrow, and the arches are open, which lets a long word run the width of the plate without closing up. Because the stroke is very thin, the face needs a large size and a clean ground, and the specimen sets it over a photograph of a farm where the type sits on the sky, the calmest area of the image. The narrow width is the practical advantage: a long word pair fits a shop board or a card without a second line. The caption beneath is a small tracked caps face, and the palette is one ink plus the photograph, which keeps the plate plain rather than rustic in a costume sense.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Simple Farmhouse’s stroke geometry.

Brand & packaging

Sign for a farm shop

A thin handwritten caps face reads as a hand-lettered board, and the tall narrow letters fit a long shop name on a fascia without shrinking the height.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

Paint a 1,400 by 350 mm fascia: the name at 120 mm cap height, the produce in a 26 mm sans, and a 5 mm rule. Keep 30 mm margins and paint one colour on a pale board so the thin strokes stay crisp.

Pre-production check

Check the fascia at 120 mm, where a thin stroke can look fragile against the sky; keep the weight even. Confirm the 26 mm produce reads at four metres and that the rule clears the fixings.

Wedding

Sign for a barn reception

A hand-lettered caps face suits a rustic venue without a script, and the narrow letters keep a long greeting legible on a board seen from the far end of a barn.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

A1 board: the greeting at 90 mm cap height, the names in a 36 mm serif, and the date at 22 mm. Keep 40 mm margins and paint one colour on a light board with a matte finish.

Pre-production check

Check the board at four metres, where a thin handwritten stroke can break up; increase the weight if the board is backlit. Confirm the 22 mm date reads from the door and that the greeting fits the width.

Thank you

Card for a harvest thank-you

A light handwritten face reads as a personal note, and the tall letters leave room for a message in a companion serif on the same card.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

A6 folded card: the greeting at 26 pt, the message in a 9 pt serif at 13 pt leading, and a small leaf. Keep 14 mm margins and print one ink on a cream card.

Pre-production check

Check the 26 pt greeting, where a thin stroke can break on a home printer; keep it above 0.5 mm. Confirm the 9 pt message reads comfortably and that the card folds without cracking.
