Usages idéaux: A one-of-one feel for bindings, packaging and grounds · Organic counterpoint to strict typesetting
Typographie: A composed serif or small sans that doesn't fight the pattern
Composition: Full-bleed pattern needs one clear text plane; partial use should show the cut edge
Matière: Two to four flowing colors, the paper's absorbency, slight unevenness
Précaution: A digital swirl is no substitute. Understand the liquid's flow, the comb, the chance of transfer.
