While it retains a richness and elegance found in traditional uncial forms, Rieven Uncial has been carefully tempered by designer Steven Skaggs to be much more versatile. The accompanying italic works perfectly well with its uncial cousin despite being structurally quite distinct from it. Rieven Uncial looks great on books, packaging, and signage, or anytime there is a need for an exotic feel to text without being overly decorative.
Rieven Uncial was awarded a Certificate of Excellence in Type Design in the 2010 TDC2.
