Visual anatomy & craft review

Letterform structure
of Grafitti New Year.

Grafitti New Year is a sharp street-marker display built from flat tag strokes, with quick directional changes, sharp flicks and a forward lean that reads as a name written fast on a wall rather than a designed logo. The strokes are flat and even, so the face keeps its energy when printed in one colour, and the flick terminals extend past the letter body. It needs roughly 30 mm for the flicks to read as deliberate, and it is best in a single bright ink on dark paper, or black on a pale wash.

Practical applications

Project & layout
blueprints.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Grafitti New Year’s stroke geometry.

Winter

New-year flyer, ice-rink banner and street-party sign

Marker tags read as a flyer put up around a city, which is what a New Year street party distributes. The flat strokes hold in one ink on dark stock, and the flicks give the word movement that a geometric sans would need a gradient to match.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

Flyer A5, word 70 mm with 10 mm flick clearance, details 8/11 pt, 12 mm margins. Banner 1500 x 400 mm, word 240 mm, 100 mm margins and 25 mm clear of each eyelet. Sign 600 x 400 mm, word 120 mm, 40 mm margins.

Pre-production check

Flyers pasted on a cold wall ripple as the paste dries and a flick terminal at the trim curls away. Keep 10 mm of trim beyond the flicks, and check one pasted flyer the next morning.

Brand & packaging

Streetwear tag, sticker pack and shop vinyl

A fast tag reads as a brand that came out of a scene rather than a studio, which is what a skate or street label sells. The even stroke cuts as a 50 mm sticker and prints in one colour on a garment, and the flicks make a short name look hand-done at any size.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

Sticker 80 x 50 mm, word 16 mm, 3 mm die margin. Tee print 260 x 140 mm, word 55 mm, 40 mm margins. Window vinyl 900 x 300 mm, word 150 mm, 60 mm margins.

Pre-production check

A 50 mm sticker leaves a 16 mm tag with flicks under 0.5 mm that tear on the die line. Keep the sticker word at 20 mm or thicken the flicks, and pull one sticker before the sheet.

Editorial & posters

Zine cover, feature opener and gig poster

A marker tag reads as the cover of a self-published zine, which is exactly what a scene publication prints on cheap stock. The flat strokes survive a photocopier, and the lean keeps a long title from looking centred and safe.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

Cover 148 x 210 mm, title 60 mm with 10 mm flick clearance, cover lines 8/11 pt, 12 mm margins. Opener 420 x 297 mm, headline 110 mm, body 9/13 pt. Poster A2, word 260 mm, details 22/28 pt, 30 mm margins.

Pre-production check

A photocopier at 80 percent reduction breaks the flick tips into dots and the title looks printed badly. Print the zine at 100 percent, and check one reduced spread before the run.
