Not a lettering person but… The S with overlapping T looks like an L to me. The C looks like the curly bottom part of a blackletter T. So agreed that it’s hard to read. Either let it be ornamental and hard to read or maybe try to separate the letterforms more?

For those who are good at lettering... The client liked this design but said the S-T-C was a bit hard to read (that's the initials of the business). Any lettering people able to help? How could I make the letters more legible? #critique #lettering
