Author's note

Saraswathy by nEthno Multimedia is a free South Asian script-style display font with a broad, looping silhouette. Thick vertical strokes meet hairline curves, and several forms stretch into long horizontal sweeps. Strong changes in width keep the lettering formal but lively.

Book covers suit its literary air, while boutique packaging benefits from the ornate, emblem-like shapes. It also fits cultural event posters and music graphics. The design will speak most directly to audiences familiar with decorative South Asian lettering.
