Forme Type Patterns, Ornaments and Borders
The idea for these patterns, ornaments and borders derived from different ornaments discovered whilst working in a letterpress studio. The concept was to create as many geometric patterns and ornaments as possible using only the characters found in a standard typeface. There are 28 Patterns, 15 ornaments and 10 borders in each set: There are four sets using four different typefaces, Times New Roman, Futura, Clarendon, and Rockwell.
