What is lettering art called?

Lettering-based wall art usually falls under typography or calligraphy art. Typography prints focus on the design and arrangement of letterforms, calligraphy is the art of beautiful handwritten script, and hand lettering means letters drawn individually as illustrations. Alphabet, monogram and quotation prints are all popular offshoots. When you shop for lettering prints, searching any of these terms will turn up related styles.

What are the four main types of lettering styles?

Most lettering is grouped into serif, sans serif, script and decorative (display) styles. Serif letters have small finishing strokes and feel traditional; sans serif is clean and modern; script flows like handwriting or calligraphy; decorative covers bold, novelty and illustrated letterforms. Knowing these categories makes choosing easier: pair sans serif with contemporary interiors, script with softer, romantic rooms, and decorative type with playful or eclectic spaces.

What kinds of letter prints can I choose from?

Letter-based wall art generally comes in a few recognisable forms: single alphabet letters, monograms, full words or names, and quote or slogan designs. Styles range from clean black-and-white lettering with sharp lines to colourful, playful designs that suit children's rooms. Decide first whether you want one bold statement letter or a phrase, then match the lettering style and palette to the room.

How do I style lettering prints in a room?

Lettering prints work best when the type does the talking, so keep surrounding décor calm. A single bold letter or short quote suits a hall, study or above a desk, while a set of monochrome letter prints in matching frames makes a tidy gallery wall. Mix letters with a photograph or botanical print to break up the text, and echo one colour from the artwork in a cushion or shelf accessory.
