Script that works well with The Sans/PMN Caecilia?

Hi,

i’m searching for a casual script that could work well with a The Sans/PMN Caecilia combination. Casual is the keyword; nothing “too appealing”, “too distinctive”. Don’t think “display”, think more in the “handwritten” direction.

I’m far from being a “script guy” … ideas?

T.

Fresco Script ... it’s Dutch, too :-)

You could also look at Brisa

(But I suspect Fresco would be a better match)

Just Lefthand, Erik Righthand. The original handwriting fonts — and Dutch too.

Thanks for replying,

Fresco Script is “too Fresco”
Brisa is too “wellness hotel”
Erik Righthand is too “Poster, too black”

I know script is a highly subjective thing, that’s why it might be so difficult to find s.th. right –

Ok it’s time for a new expanding definition;
A handwriting dutch thing with a more informal character.
Something like Lucida Casual in a handwritten style :)

Have you looked at the italics on Goudy Sans?

Other options are:
Sassoon Primary
Briem Script
Barchowsky Fluent Hand
