The American designer Denis Pasternak created the font in 1995. He based the forms of ITC Stylus on those of freehand architectural lettering from historical and contemporary sources. Pasternak points out that while the typeface emulates hand lettering, no pencil drawings or scanned art were used in its creation. The letters bounce slightly across the baseline, giving the typeface the look of true handwriting. ITC Stylus emanates warmth when used for extended text and a fresh quality in display sizes.
ITC Stylus is part of the Linotype Library.
