Pattern was designed by Eike Dingler and published by Mauve Type. Pattern contains 37 styles and family package options.  

The Pattern Project is an ornamental display type family. It is inspired by medieval initials and transforms their mesmerizing rhichness of detail into cool state-of-the-art typography. All letter shapes and patterns are exclusively geometric, providing a very distinct and contemporary feel.

Pattern is the new sexy – perfect for vodka labels, record sleeves and posters. For editorial design and packaging. With a special typographic impact.

Some practical details:

- Family consists of 9 diverse patterns + a blank version.

- 3 weights available.

- As with patterns in general: It is quite essential how far you zoom in to change the graphic impression. 3 pattern resolutions (Coarse, Medium + Fine) allow varying the pattern size independently from the font size.

- Each pattern comes with diverse weights and/or pattern resolutions.

- Use in display sizes only. The bigger – the better!

- Fine pattern resolutions require even larger font sizes than coarse resolutions.

- Fonts gain kind of ʺtransparencyʺ through the patterns - handy for use on top of images.

- Characterset is caps only and supports Central, Eastern and Western European languages.
