A short letter, set in the family.
Thursday afternoon
Dear Alex,
I left the book by the window. There is a note on page twenty-three that I thought you would like. Bring it along on Thursday; we can finish the conversation over coffee.
See you there.

Evening vows by the lake
In Waterfall the capitals do almost all the talking. The small letters stop short of halfway up the capitals, tucked low and tight, and the whole script sets very narrow, so a name in it is mostly tall swinging caps with a ribbon of lowercase running underneath. Robert Leuschke built it from traditional hand lettered italic forms and joined them with the connecting strokes of a more formal script.
6 stylistic sets and a store of alternates give a lot of room to rework a word, and the 586 characters cover Western and Central European languages and Vietnamese.
Use it for a couple’s names on an invitation, set big. Under about 24 px the lowercase is gone.
