About Surakarta Font Family


Surakarta is a display face of western characters with numerous optional ligatures modeled after the graceful Javanese alphabet still taught in many schools on the island of Java in Indonesia, though it has been replaced by the latin alphabet for most everyday purposes. This is the second in Parquillian Design’s series of fonts inspired by some of the beautiful lesser-known native scripts of Southeast Asia.

About Parquillian Design

Parquillian Design was founded in 2010 by Martin L Parker to explore his passions for graphic, web and font design.Martin has been fascinated by many aspects of language since childhood, including calligraphy, linguistics, and the many writing systems used around the world and through time. These interests have inspired Martin to create several typefaces including ones that reference one of his calligraphic hands (Parquillian), the Cambodian Aksar Mul or “round script” (AngloAngkor), and the historical Javanese Hanacaraka script (Surakarta).
