Author's note

Catch the Wind by Emily Hinshelwood is a free decorative display font crowned with slender wind turbines. Its broad, uneven letters have swelling strokes and an easy hand-drawn silhouette, with turbine towers growing directly from the forms.

Renewable energy campaigns and children's publishing can both use its clear wind-power theme, and it also suits festival posters and environmental merchandise. Because the turbines turn each word into a small landscape, the font can become the emblem for an eco-focused product identity.
