On the font of the plaque in the former residence-helpful for understanding calligraphy

You can use regular script or official script, and you can choose Wei Bei in regular script.

Ancient titles are always older than the font of the text. For example, Han steles are all official scripts, so its inscriptions are all written in seal script. Therefore, old fonts should be used in thick places like the former residence.

I don't think cursive script can be used, and running script is too casual. Tradition is certain, and calligraphy is mostly traditional.
