To make this ginormous burger even more mouth-watering, Design Director Jane Sherman used Barracuda Script like healthy squirts of ketchup, complimenting an already delicious serving. Sherman has tailored the baselines of almost every letter and, it appears, even rotated certain characters. By not using the script out of the box, the irregular, though balanced, typography takes on a nice hand-lettered effect — something most scripts don’t inherently convey. This, combined with the swashes and ornamental hits, makes for one tasty and exuberant summer cover.
