Ornamental (also known as novelty or sometimes display) Typography are used exclusively for decorative purposes, and are not suitable for body text. They have the most distinctive designs of all fonts, and may even incorporate pictures of objects, animals, etc. into the character designs. They usually have very specific characteristics (e.g., evoking the Wild West, Christmas, horror films, etc.) and hence very limited uses.
Today , we present a collection of wonderful examples of ornamental typography to show you how manipulation of fonts types, sizes and keywords can form a great artwork with inner meaning.

The illustrations by Stephanie Wiehle are beautiful. But they are similar to the work of Yulia Brodskaya.
