Ridicule

by Don Synstelien

Ridicule is a decorative display face by Don Synstelien where the letterforms are built from floral and organic flourishes, giving each character an illustrated, almost botanical quality. The ornamental detail is dense enough to feel genuinely artistic rather than simply quirky, but it means the font only really works at large sizes where the intricacies can breathe. Best for headlines, invitations, or editorial pieces where the type itself is meant to be the artwork.
