This last point might best explain why Thirsty Script (and Thirsty Rough) has been used so much recently and why I suddenly noticed it everywhere. Thirsty font works particularly well because it’s easy to pair with other fonts. They often work well for subjects like cooking, travel and home decorating, gardening and parenting. Script fonts are something that tends to look modern, yet friendly. These script fonts walk the line between something that says “wedding invitation” and the more casual style of script like fonts that look more like handwriting. These fonts have been used widely, in part because they are free, but also because they are a script font that is more casual. It’s a more modern approach, some would say a “hipster” look, but something that is currently speaking to our time and has been appealing to this wave of graphic designers for awhile.Įarly script fonts that pre-date Thirsty Script would be Lobster and Marketing Script, and more recently: Wisdom Script. Thirsty script to me, looks like a continuation of the arc that graphic design has been taking since 2013. The fonts that become trends in design seem to happen out of the blue, but really they are a result of the design trends that are happening all around us and coming about in small and slow ways over time, at an individual designer preference based level. It seemed to come into popularity recently and now I see it everywhere. The interesting thing I noticed, is that this trend is happening across different topics, genres, and even across different publishers. It’s official: Thirsty Script on Book Covers is a thing. Just take a look:Īnd this book too: One Bowl Baking. I have to say, the last few months I’ve been noticing a design pattern on book covers! A particular script font that is being used quite a bit… Thirsty Script in Rough and Regular. I’m always at my local library, and I love checking out the “what’s new” on the the non-fiction book shelf when you walk in.
