Tillana是一個令人耳目一新的非正式字體家族，用於德文和拉丁語。這些字體最初是由印度字體鑄造廠在2014年作為一個開源項目發佈的。每重1021個字符，Tillana擁有設置各種歐洲語言以及印度語言（如印地語，馬拉地語，尼泊爾語等）所需的所有字符。蒂拉娜家族包括五種風格，從常規到特別大膽的重量範圍。蒂拉娜的拉丁文不連貫;family的這一部分是一個非連接腳本類型。Devanagari部分是目前可用於該腳本的少數“真正的草書”設計之一。
兩種書寫系統的字符看起來好像是流暢的手寫，尤其是梵文。蒂拉娜的字體呈10度角傾斜。筆畫呈現出明顯的對比，動態的計數器形式是設計最突出的特點之一。這種形式包括許多環和鉤，大多數結是環而不是封閉的黑色形式。兩種文字中所有的豎筆畫的頂部和底部都有凸起，梵文漢字的中央豎筆畫幾乎總是突破標題。手寫人工製品也出現在拉丁字母中，例如小寫q的降格上的hook。
Tillana的Devanagari基礎字符高度垂直地落在拉丁大寫字母和小寫字母高度之間。拉丁字符有一個小的x高和長上升和下降。Lipi Raval設計了Tillana的Devanagari組件，並與Jonny Pinhorn一起設計了拉丁語。
Tillana is a refreshingly informal family of typefaces for Devanagari and Latin. The fonts were first published by the Indian Type Foundry as an open source project in 2014. Coming in at 1021 glyphs per weight, Tillana has all of the characters necessary to set a variety of European languages, as well as Indian languages like Hindi, Marathi, Nepali, and more. The Tillana family includes five styles, which range in weight from Regular through Extra Bold. Tillana’s Latin do not connect; this part of the family is a non-joining script type. The Devanagari part is one of the few “true cursive” designs currently available for the script.
Characters from both writing systems appear as if they were fluidly handwritten, particularly the Devanagari. Tillana’s letterforms are slanted at a 10 degree angle. The strokes are show visible contrast, and the dynamic counter forms are one of the design’s most prominent features. The forms involve many loops and hooks and most of the knots are loops rather than closed, black forms. All vertical strokes in both scripts have swelling at their tops and bottoms, and the Devanagari characters’ central vertical strokes almost always break through the headline. Handwriting artefacts are present in the Latin letters, too, such as hook on the descender of the lowercase q.
Tillana’s Devanagari base character height falls vertically between the Latin upper and lowercase letter heights. The Latin characters have a small x-height and long ascenders and descenders. Lipi Raval designed the Devanagari components of Tillana, and worked together with Jonny Pinhorn on the Latin.
