I created a pattern using the letter K. Although it looks as though it could be almost symmetrical about the x axis, the crotch of the K is not. It appears as though the upper stroke extends through the crotch of the K, but this portion actually has a thicker width. In addition, the leg of the K extends just slightly farther than the upper stroke. These two discrepancies create interesting shapes in the void of the pattern, rather than a typical diamond shape that would be created by a more font with a more regular geometry, such as Calibri or Geneva. Along with the irregular shapes created by the voids, I wanted to highlight the angle of the stroke. This pattern shows that a simple font still has complexity in its angles and thickness.
