Bernice

HWT Bernice is a system of ornaments designed by graphic artist Marian Bantjes. Aptly named for Bernice Schwahert, the first female type trimmer at Hamilton Manufacturing, known for her precision. The individual elements are asymmetrical, so symmetry, if that’s what you’re looking for, is found in rotation. Cover art, book endpapers, and fabrics are only a few possible applications. Equally enticing if you go big with wallpaper patterns and stenciled floors.
