I love ligatures. I know it is not always necessary or wise to use them, but at times one sees fit I love a ligature! For LD Elly I designed a bunch of them – a few you can see in this post!

NEW RELEASE: Welcome LD Elly! @Bentebaseler s multi-script type family is out now 🥳👏! To celebrate the release of LD Elly we are offering a 20% discount / reduced price for a short period of time! LD Elly was designed by Bente Baseler as part of her MA Type Design studies at the University of Reading. The transitional type family is a friendly, calm and clean multi-script font family for continuous text setting in literature and editorial surroundings. LD Elly is named after Bente’s great grandmother, Elisabeth, who lived in Bavaria. She gives this typeface her character and attitude: stable serifs connected to the baseline, almost straight stems meet connecting strokes with contrast, and subtle elegance. The typeface covers Latin (including accents for Western Europe, Central Europe and South-Eastern Europe), Arabic (also covering Urdu and Persian), and Greek. The family offers four weights across all scripts, and italics for Latin and Greek. The greytone of the text pattern holds the scripts together. To make sure that the scripts are balanced and to avoid latinization the Arabic and the Greek designs are influenced by the traditional writing tools and writing movements. All the scripts are designed to not disturb the reader while reading. There is a beauty to simplicity, which makes this quiet, consistent typeface effective for the use in texts.
