“With Enfantine, creative director Jean-Baptiste Levée wanted to create a childlike script face that was usable in design work. Due to their handwritten origins, script typefaces are normally sloped. This makes an upright script something of an oddity. Yet, there is something about Enfantine that makes it welcoming and familiar. These simple, monolinear shapes are more appealing, with gentle loops and letter connections that work at several levels—top, middle and bottom. Choosing not to rely on quaint references or fancy tricks, Levée achieved his goal of a use-
ful, modern typeface that can operate in a range of contexts.”
