Calligraphy is an ancient penmanship art form focused on beautiful handwriting and word art. Today, this decorative type of hand-writing is still popular. It is used to decorate texts, logo’s, menus, postcards, wedding stationery and documents by forming, arranging and decorating the shapes and symbols of words. Cursive handwriting is a great way to relax and let your typography creativity flow.

Explore both traditional and modern calligraphy examples in this text designer app. Traditional calligraphy involves the practice of certain script styles and aims for a uniform shape of letters with fixed proportions. Modern lettering, sometimes called ‘faux calligraphy’, is a big trend over the last few years. In modern caligraphy, often different styles are combined in one composition.

Whether you're new to calligraphy or a master calligrapher, learn to write and boost your typography creativity with this caligraphy text designer app, endless word art templates, tattoo designs, font editor and quotes creator.
