Courgette
Courgette is a handwriting font with a single regular weight and normal style. Its informal, handwritten character can bring a personal touch to short text, headings, labels, and small display moments. Because the available style range is limited, it is best treated as an accent font rather than the only typeface in a larger project.
Best suited for: Use Courgette for invitations, greeting cards, menus, packaging details, social graphics, and friendly headings. It can also work well for brief captions or highlighted phrases where a relaxed, personal impression is useful. Keep longer passages in a more readable companion font so the handwritten treatment remains clear and effective.
Design considerations: The regular weight gives you one consistent level of emphasis, with no built-in light, bold, or italic alternatives to create hierarchy. Use size, spacing, placement, and a contrasting companion face to separate levels of information. Shorter lines and generous surrounding space can help the lettering remain easy to read, especially at display sizes.
Pairing guidance: Balance Courgette with a clean sans serif for a modern, approachable layout, or choose a restrained serif when you want a warmer editorial feel. Look for companions with clear letterforms, several useful weights, and a calm texture. Keep the supporting font visually quieter so the handwritten style remains the focal point.
