Single Stroke | Retroset Typeface!

Freshly inked and dripping with mid-century soul, it’s ••S I N G L E • S T R O K E•• — a lively retroset typeface from StudioWorks!

Sourced from the golden age of American commercial lettering, Single Stroke captures the raw energy of a brush hitting paper at full confidence. No second-guessing, no going back. Just one bold, fluid stroke that’s all business.

Typical of the kind of lettering you’d find whisked across a 1950s diner window, painted on an amusement park ride or inked across a soda pop ad, Single Stroke is perfect for headlines, logos, signage and display use.

Here’s what you get with Single Stroke:

• Upper (A-Z) and lower case (a-z) characters
• Numbers (0-9)
• Standard punctuation and glyphs
• OTF file format
• Free updates and feature additions

Use Single Stroke to add warmth and timeless personality to your designs. Great for that authentic hand-lettered look on everything from brand packaging to apparel. Use it on posters, logos and signage to give your product a friendly look with an established shelf presence. Highly legible and endlessly versatile, Single Stroke is loose, fluid and dripping with personality.

NOTE: All featured designs use Single Stroke. The ‘Hot ‘n’ Tot’ ad also features the sans serif typeface Bluto. ‘Chef’s Special’, ‘Extra! Extra!’ and ‘Surprise’ all feature seamless paper textures from Papertuity Volume 1. The ‘Crowd’ ad features an overlay texture from Crack, Crease and Fold Brush Kit. The ‘Premium Petroleum’ ad features the typeface Petro. Papertuity, Crack, Crease & Fold Brush Kit, Bluto and Petro are all available from StudioWorks (each sold separately). All illustrations are the work of Sean Thorenson. Vector art not included.
