I've started to create and collect some more complicated grid patterns to see how the honeycomb idea could be applied with different grids. At first I thought the grids made of squares and triangles that make circles would work really well as the patterns really resemble a mosaic however they create a really and almost cartoon letterform that I'm really not a fan of. The grids that only use one shape work much better to create a structured letterform but there is some degree of experimental grid you can use to make an interesting effect. The biggest challenge is getting right the size of the grid. I need to create a balance between keeping the letterforms of the clarendon typeface and keeping the mosaic effect.
