Charming Strangulation

by Octotype | Thomas Boucherie · Website

Charming Strangulation is a formal calligraphic script from Thomas Boucherie at Octotype, with flowing cursive letterforms and generous swash details that give it a lavish, hand-lettered quality. Despite the ominous name, the design reads as genuinely elegant, with the kind of ornamental flourishes you'd expect on wedding invitations, event stationery, and luxury branding. Best at headline sizes where the sweeping strokes and connecting ligatures have room to breathe.
