Polywog

by Jeni Pleskow · Website

Polywog is a curly, swirl-heavy novelty face from Jeni Pleskow where every letterform seems to wiggle and loop like it has a mind of its own. The ornamental flourishes give it a fantasy storybook quality, playful and a little eccentric, with enough personality to carry headlines, posters, and packaging that need to feel whimsical without being precious. Readability drops fast at smaller sizes, so it lives best in big, expressive settings.
