In Upstart must a business idea not only be ingenious, but also look good. Whether social business, tech start-ups or the barber around the corner—young entrepreneurs know that what counts these days is how they communicate their brand to the outside world. Their tailor-made solutions and their overall appearance testify to their creative attitude and attention to detail—from business cards to interior design and digital applications.

In Pixel, Patch und Pattern two worlds meet: the vibrating coolness of digital typography and the decelerating craft of knitting. Rüdiger Schlömer takes you step by step into the world of letter knitting. With pattern alphabets, for which he implements fonts by renowned type designers, Schlömer lays the foundation for your typographic expression with needle and yarn. Threads become lines and modules grid. Typographic knitting is not a new handicraft trend, but a graphic approach to a handicraft technique that in most of us has a sleeping beauty sleep, from which we simply want to wake it up.
Pixel, Patch und Pattern at Slanted Shop, 216 pages, 17 × 23 cm, 29,80 €.
