    Neo Script is a handwritten typeface that combines personal writing habits with the stroke logic of brush calligraphy. Defined by a left-heavy, right-light contrast, each letter begins with weight and gradually releases into a lighter ending.

    The typeface is built around a seven-degree slant and a mostly single-stroke construction, allowing the letterforms to move with a continuous handwritten rhythm. These shared principles bring consistency to the uppercase and lowercase letters, numerals, and punctuation while preserving their human irregularity.

    The typeface is presented through an accordion-format specimen that translates its shifting stroke weight into a physical reading experience. Progressive page lengths and changing paper weights guide the reader from pressure toward release, allowing the book’s structure to embody Neo Script’s movement, rhythm, and balance.

Letterform Development
Early handwriting, brushstroke, and angle studies were refined into a consistent letterform system while preserving the movement of the original gestures.
