What Makes Papyrus Unique?
Originally created by Chris Costello, Papyrus blends Roman letterforms with the flow of Middle Eastern script, resulting in a font that feels both ancient and expressive.
Key traits include:
- Textured strokes that mimic ink on parchment
- Irregular curves that convey a hand-drawn feel
- Elevated horizontal bars that give a stylized aesthetic
- An earthy, timeless tone that’s hard to replicate
Papyrus is often used to evoke creativity, spirituality, and tradition—all in a visually distinctive way.
