Shantell Sans is a unique font that was created specifically for Shantell Martin, a renowned visual artist. The font is based on her felt-marker handwriting, but it does not aim to precisely mimic it. Instead, it takes inspiration from marker-based fonts like Comic Sans and Inkwell Sans to create an authentic typographic system that delivers a simple, inviting, and energetic tone while encouraging freedom and play.
Unlike Shantell's writing, which is dynamic and does not conform to a rigid baseline or precise metrics, Shantell Sans employs variable axes to reflect this flexibility in a fluid range of styles. This allows the font to maintain its authenticity while accommodating a wide range of design needs.
Shantell Sans is a versatile font that supports over 380 languages using Latin and Cyrillic scripts, making it accessible to people throughout Europe, the Americas, and central Asia. Whether you're designing a website, creating a print advertisement, or crafting a brand identity, Shantell Sans can help you achieve a unique and engaging look that stands out from the crowd.
