The goal of this project was to repeat and rotate one or more letterforms to create an engaging black and white pattern. We considered the use of contrast to create an interesting figure/ground relationship, and selected letterforms based on contrasting forms and stroke widths.
The pattern was created using the letter 'j' in set in the typeface Futura, and the letter 'O' set in the typeface Bodoni. The final composition size was 8"x8".
The following are rendered versions of the patterns in three different analogous color combinations:
