Located in Austin, Texas, Scriptorium specialized in hundreds of mostly decorative and calligraphic fonts, based on historical and folk sources. Nalle got his start in calligraphy as a child, studying old manuscripts and duplicating the lettering he liked. This passion for historical letterforms is beautifully embodied in Septimus, which evokes the refined calligraphy of classic manuscripts with its graceful, flowing serifs.
