Music Note
Music Note is a quirky display in green, teal, pink and yellow inside a white burst on a pink ground: mixed case whose letters carry note heads, staff-like bars and a clef, with small figures playing instruments around the edge and a plain line beneath naming the style.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Music Note.
The plate sets the face inside a starburst, which suits it, because the word is a set of illustrated letters rather than a text face: the M and the N carry staff bars, the o has a note head inside it, and the e is stacked into a chord. That construction sets a large size floor, because the note heads and bars close when the letters shrink, and the plate sets the words large enough that each device is recognisable. The figures around the edge are staging that names the subject, and the plain line beneath is product copy. Because each letter is a small illustration, the face suits a poster, a card and a shirt for a music school or a gig, and it is honest about its limits by showing two short words.

blueprints.
Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Music Note’s stroke geometry.
Poster for a music school
A note-filled display names the subject in the lettering, and the colours read across a corridor board. A school should look as musical as it sounds.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
A3 poster: the school at 75 mm cap height, the term dates in a 20 mm sans, and the room at 11 mm. Keep 25 mm margins and print four colours on a light stock.
Pre-production check
Check the A3 at four metres, where a note head can close; keep it above 4 mm. Confirm the 11 mm room reads at two metres and that the colours stay distinct at distance.
Card for a live gig night
A music display sets a gig card, and the letters carry the theme without a photograph of the band. A gig card needs a subject in the art.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
A6 card: the night at 26 pt, the details in a 9.5 pt sans, and the date at 8.5 pt. Keep 15 mm margins and print four colours on a white card. Leave 12 mm at the foot for the door line.
Pre-production check
Check the 26 pt title at home-print resolution, where a staff bar can fill; keep it above 1 mm. Confirm the 9.5 pt details keep a 4.5:1 contrast and that the card folds flat.
Label for a record shop
A note display signals the trade on a shelf, and the letters stay legible at a moderate label size. A record shop sells on its subject.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 60 by 60 mm label: the shop at 12 pt, the line at 8 pt, and three colours on a white stock. Keep 4 mm inside the die and keep the note heads above 2 mm.
Pre-production check
Check the 12 pt shop on a small die, where a note head can close; simplify at that size. Confirm the 8 pt line reads at arm's length and that the label peels cleanly.
