Description
Facade Pro font by ingoFonts is a fancy, handwritten, brush-like typeface with an organic, bold, and artistic style. Decorated by irregular and uneven elements, it tends to have a cursive yet distinctive appearance that makes the writing look unique and decorative. The font is expressive, dynamic, and serif-like in some parts but doesn’t fully respect all the rules.
The elegant brush appearance of Facade Pro gives it an edge when used in signatures, lettering, calligraphy, and monograms. It is also a good option for book covers, personal branding, packaging, social media graphics, and collages. Website designs, magazines, postcards, posters, and album covers are few of many more options to consider too.
This font is offered for free use in personal projects. Non-personal or commercial usage rights must be first obtained from the author.

Author's note
A handwritten decorative font with brush characteristics
An attractive decorative script found in a pamphlet of script samples from around 1900 which was issued by Otto Maier publishing house in Ravensburg. The pamphlet is entitled "Collection of scripts for technical specialists: reduced scripts of the most significant alphabets," published by Karl O. Maier.
The forms and flow of Facade Pro are obviously influenced by Art Nouveau.
In the original sample from Karl O. Maier, only the Latin alphabet appears. All other characters, especially the Greek and Cyrillic letters, were modeled on elements of the original.
A typeface can first reveal a true "handmade" character when the letter forms do not continually repeat themselves - a completely normal occurrence with handwriting.
Thanks to OpenType-Technology, some key letters of Facade Pro appear in various alternative forms depending on the combination of letters. For example, the difference is obvious between an e followed by i and an e followed by l. Using this principle, a number of letter combinations are presented with alternative character forms so that overall a very lively impression is created.
The font downloadable here is a reduced version (without punctuation, ligatures, numbers etc.). A commercial version of this font (with all features) is available at www.ingofonts.com
