Description

**Font Project Git Repo URL:**
https://github.com/AlexandreBassi0/ChaumontScript/tree/main

**Super short description of the Font Family:**
Timothée Gouraud (Fabrication Maison) discovered in 2016 the work of Chantal Jacquet, sign painter in Chaumont (Haute-Marne, France) in the 1980s. Intigued by these singular shapes, he contacted ANRT to design a digital font out of it. A complex task, achieved by Alexandre Bassi, who managed to transcribe the rythm and cursivity of this script, through a extended character set (2500 glyphs) and complex OpenType Features.
