I always remember the book Writing, Illuminating & Lettering by Edward Johnston (1906). This book was written more than 100 years ago and it’s very inspirational since it talks from the perspective of a time before computers and their impact in we know for typography. Nothing there has the perfection of a machine, and that’s beautiful.There he shows a figure full of useful ideas to fill gaps in a calligraphy page.Here I created my own version. If you suffer/enjoy from horror vacui you can use any of these items. But use them with care. If you put too many together, they might clog the result, as happened in this spread.
