Tidemark

Lettering the sea has already been at.

See it in the 3D portfolio Tidemark

A condensed stencil typeface drawn from the painted lettering on Dorset's harbours.

One waterline cuts through every letter at the same height. In the Wash style everything below it breaks into bands, as if worn back by the tide.
