Le Liber’thés lettering, 2022
For the fourth time in one year, I’ve created a temporary sign for the local café Le Liber’thés in Blois, France.
After a first one using Banco and a green gradient (see bottom), for this one I’ve adapted Bild from the Font of the Month Club (DJR). I also tried to execute a reversed Touriga Casual lettering (designed by Fernando Mello) at the top and the bottom of the sign. And as I have a sort of freedom (“Liberté” in French, hence the name of the place), or ‘carte blanche’, I’ve also tested two colors combinations.
Definitly not a perfect hand painted sign (no sharp corners, many wonky shapes, etc.), but just a way of practice and try some ideas and see the reactions.
The mosaic on the lettering is (not changed every quarter of course) is modeled after Blippo Black.

The spring sign, made in April 2022, and using Banco in a green gradient.
