Security Papers

I love pattern. Any kind of pattern. The other day I came across Joseph King's flickr set of security papers, via The Style Press. I love the neutrals and blues and little shapes. The above sample has been called Dot Matrix Crosshatch. This is an ongoing project. Anyone can participate by simply emailing him a high-res jpg. I think I will spend a bit of time today rummaging through my piles of papers.

Speaking of pattern, I also just noticed the pattern on the white sleeve of my coffee cup, little debossed dots. So Sweet. Pattern is everywhere. Look closer.
