## About Croissant One

Croissant One is a display typeface with heavy strokes, clear contrast between thick and thin, and a lowercase that behaves like upright handwriting. The official notes say it was inspired by Paris and by French handwriting: lowercase letters are round and most end in an outgoing stroke that reaches toward the next letter. In the specimen the r and s take cursive forms, the v and w are rounded, and the g and y end in curled tails, while the capitals keep a classical serif structure with softened ends; U, V and W are drawn with round bottoms. The family has one Regular style and is not a variable font. Its 396 glyphs cover Latin and Latin Extended, enough for languages such as French, Turkish, Polish and Czech. Eduardo Tunni designed it, and it is published under the SIL Open Font License 1.1 with Croissant as a Reserved Font Name.

## Where it works

- **Bakery and café menus**: Rounded lowercase with handwriting-style exits gives dish names and section titles a hand-painted shopfront look.
- **Food packaging**: Heavy strokes hold a product name on a label, and the cursive r and s add character to a short word.
- **Wordmarks**: A single word set in mixed case shows the long exit strokes leading from one letter toward the next.
- **Headings on invitations and cards**: Classical capitals with soft ends open a line formally while the lowercase stays friendly.

## Things to know

- **Letters reach but do not fully join**: Exit strokes point toward the following letter; the face is an upright serif design, not a connected script.
- **Cursive r and s**: The lowercase r and s use handwriting forms that differ from the usual printed shapes.
- **One style**: There is a single Regular style, already heavy, with no lighter weight or italic.
