Signature ideas
Each one is a genuine drawing of the name — not a font — made by the same studio that draws the paid commission, with the design decisions stated under it.
Understated · flowing · fully readable
the full name · a capital on its own shelf · finished on a long sail
An upright and compact hand. It stands almost straight up, 21 degrees off vertical. The "r" in "Lori" is the letter carrying it, because that is where your hand is already fastest.
Confident · flowing · signature-legible
the full name · a capital on its own shelf · finished on a long sail
An urgent and measured hand. It leans 26 degrees off vertical.
Commanding · sharp · signature-legible
the full name · finished on a long sail
An unbroken and rounded hand. Only 8 pen lifts in the whole thing.
Confident · sharp · fully readable
the full name · a capital on its own shelf · finished on a long sail
A measured hand. The pen keeps one pace instead of accelerating through.
Understated · sharp · signature-legible
both names in one unbroken line · a capital on its own shelf · finished on a long sail
A dramatic and generous hand. The stroke swells and thins by a factor of 3.6. It is the rare one that runs both names together as one word.
Commanding · flowing · fully readable
the full name · a capital on its own shelf · finished on a long sail
An angular and restrained hand. The turns are cut rather than curved.
The capital L carries the mark. There are 2 distinct professional constructions of it on the studio's shelf, and which one a design commits to changes the whole gesture.
What follows the capital decides the middle of the mark: the dotted i leaves a mark above the line that a fast hand turns into a flick.
At 4 letters, Lori is short enough to sign at full length every time — the design question is presence, not speed.
These studies are drawn on the first name alone, because that is how the question is usually asked — but a working signature is built on your full name: the second capital, the balance between the two words, and the short everyday version are where the real design decisions live.
The studio draws twenty directions for your full name in about a minute, and the kit — the files, the report that explains the design, and the stroke-order lesson — is what the three you choose become.
