Obelisque Font
Author's note
Obelisque by Brandon Hunter is a free handwritten display font with tall, loosely drawn letters, open curves, and a light, uneven stroke. Its shifting proportions feel relaxed but never messy.
Its simple ink-drawn forms can become part of sketchbook illustrations on posters and music packaging, rather than sitting apart as formal type. The same informal construction suits cafe branding and handmade event graphics, especially for projects with a personal, understated voice. In editorial work, it is well suited to magazine section titles or pull quotes about art, craft, and independent culture.
