About Chateau
Chateau is our beauty packaging pick, and it is a pick rather than a default — we looked at the shelf twice before leaving it on. The designer behind it is Operatype.Co. With 3 saves it has barely been seen, and that is neither a good nor a bad sign on a catalogue this size. No reviews either way, so the preview is doing all the work on this one.
Look at the face at body-text size before you look at it big. Most serif disappointments happen at eleven point, not at forty-eight. We keep it filed mentally under chateau font, which is the use that needs the least adjusting afterwards. Spend the minute on the preview at full size — it is where you find out whether beauty packaging was the description or the aspiration.
The listing files it under contemporary style, creative endeavors, custom fonts and display text — those are the words it gets found by, and between them they describe the file better than any category name does. You will find it among the serif fonts, sorted next to everything that does roughly the same job. The neighbouring searches are serif — worth a look if this particular font is close but not quite it. Most of the traffic on this shelf comes in on serif fonts and script and serif font combinations, and we picked the files on it with those requests in mind rather than by browsing prettiest-first.

How to use this font
- Download the font from Creative Fabrica and unzip it — you normally get OTF and TTF of the same face, plus a licence file.
- Install the OTF if your software gives you the choice: it carries the alternates and ligatures that make a script face look handwritten.
- Restart the app you design in — Canva, Photoshop, Cricut Design Space and Word all read the font list once, at launch.
- Read the licence before a paid job: personal and commercial use are priced apart, and a logo often needs the extended one.
