Geometric retro display
Mocka
Mocka is a high-contrast geometric retro display in cream on tan: wide letters built from thin arcs and heavy wedges, oversized oval counters, a cut-out bowl on the k and a detached crossbar, set as one word with yellow sparkles, four-petal flowers at the corners and a small retro subtitle beneath.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Mocka.
The word spans the plate and the drawing is a geometric retro display: the arcs are thin, the wedges are heavy, and the counters are oversized ovals, which makes each letter read as a shape rather than as a stroke. The detached crossbar and the cut-out bowl are the details that give the face its period character, and the specimen keeps the ground flat so the letterforms carry the sheet. The yellow sparkles and the four-petal flowers are period furniture placed at the corners and between the letters, and the subtitle beneath is set in a small retro face, which is a second voice rather than part of the same family. Because the counters are large, the face needs a reasonable size, and the tan ground keeps the cream from glaring.

Label for a retro goods brand
A geometric retro display reads as a period packet, and the oversized counters stay open on a small label where a busy retro face would clot.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 70 by 50 mm label: the brand at 15 pt, the product at 7 pt, and a 1 mm rule under the brand. Keep 4 mm inside the die and print two colours on a tan stock.
Pre-production check
Check the 15 pt brand on a small label, where a thin arc can break; keep it above 0.3 mm. Confirm the 7 pt product reads at arm's length and that the label sits flat.
Cover for a design history
A geometric retro face gives a period subject its own voice, and the flat ground keeps a cover from looking like a pastiche.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Set the title at 80 mm cap height across 195 mm, the subtitle in a 12 pt retro face, and the author at 9 pt. Print two colours on a cream stock and keep the flowers at the corners.
Pre-production check
Check the title at thumbnail size, where thin arcs can disappear; keep them above 0.4 mm. Confirm the 9 pt author survives lamination and that the flowers clear the trim.
Poster for a seventies party
A geometric retro face sets a decade theme in one word, and the flat shapes print cleanly in two colours at a small run.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
A3 poster: the occasion at 70 mm cap height, the date in a 20 mm retro face, and the address at 9 mm. Keep 25 mm margins and print two colours on a coloured stock.
Pre-production check
Check the poster at four metres, where the oversized counters can look empty; keep the sparkles as accents. Confirm the 9 mm address reads at arm's length and that the title fits.
