Quelle

Quelle is a display font intended mainly for use in logos and digital graphics but can also be used as handwriting or a playful body text. Its free, unique form allows the font to appear organic in shorter applications and avoids the pitfall of appearing overly uniform in settings where such an aesthetic is not appropriate. At the same time, however, the care taken in dimensioning each glyph and tuning the typeface's kerning allows the font to maintain readability and avoid graphical issues even in longer passages.

Apogee

Apogee is a font meant for titles and headers. Though such text is often emphasized using bolded, italicized, or underlined characters, Apogee instead stands out through its rhythmic yet restrained swashes. Excepting their respective flourish, each glyph is modest, enabling Apogee to pair with simpler typefaces typically chosen for body text.
