Author's note

Lankatilaka is a free Sinhala script display font with broad, rounded forms and sharp shifts between thick bodies and fine curls. Compact loops and raised marks give the lettering an ornamental profile.

Its curves echo traditional decorative patterns, linking naturally with cultural illustration in festival posters and event programs. Dense silhouettes also suit book covers and museum graphics about Sri Lankan subjects. It is most convincing when the lettering becomes the main decorative motif.
