About Italiko Font Family


Italiko is a calligraphic font. The letters have been hand-drawn individually to extract the common strokes. The strokes have then been re-composed to give the font a more unified appearance.


It comes in Black, Bold, Regular, and Thin. The Thin version is different as the extreme contrast in the font makes the thinner lines disappear. It is likely best used as a display font.


There are ligatures for the combination of letters that can be written more quickly by using a single stroke and letters that are slightly different from the ‘Italic canon.’


You can select which one to use in your application (i.e., Word) using combinations of italic/bold:

  • No selection -> Regular
  • Bold -> Bold
  • Italic -> Thin
  • Bold Italic -> Black


If you end up using the font, get in touch at https://github.com/lucabol/Italiko. Feel free to suggest improvements or let me know if you encounter problems.

About Luca Bolognese

Luca is an Italian calligrapher and programmer. He splits his time between Spain and Italy. Luca got interested in calligraphy many years ago. He loves the classical Italic hand, as exemplified by Fairbanks and Lloyd Reynolds. He studied it extensively to produce digital replicas that attempt to innovate on the classical forms. His font(s) strike a balance between the freshness of the pen and the rigidity of the digital medium.
