Momochidori

A four-panel board for a typeface: two dense poster-like specimen panels on top, then two technical panels below showing weight and width variations laid out on ruled horizontal registers. The lower half is diagrammatic, the upper half is applied.

Japanese display lettering with heavy, closed, slab-like strokes is shown at poster scale and then broken down into a graded matrix of weights and widths, with faint annotation type carrying the specification.

Large characters lead each panel, framed sign shapes come second, and the small parametric labels are read only when studying the grid.

The only photographic content is a wall of enamel-style signage panels; otherwise the imagery is lettering, framed shapes, and rules.

The applied panels use warm red, cream, and green at high saturation; the technical panels drop to a muted grey-blue with pale yellow type, so system explanation and application are colour-coded apart.
