Graphic patterns four types

Summary

A pattern-library page laying out the four approved graphic patterns as a clean 2x2 grid of named swatches: Micro Grid, Matrix, Cross Grid and Stripes.

Visual description

Cream (#F4F0E8) page with the standard header (title "Graphic patterns", page "147"). The left column states there are four patterns and notes they should always read as a secondary element, never the most important thing in a layout, with the four names bulleted. The main area is a 2x2 grid of large rounded-corner swatch panels, each labeled top-left: "Micro Grid" (a fine blue-grey square grid), "Matrix" (a regular field of small plus/diamond marks), "Cross Grid" (a denser dotted cross field) and "Stripes" (bold black diagonal bars). All four are set in black or grey on the cream ground.

Key takeaway

Cataloguing a pattern set as one tidy 2x2 of equally-sized named swatches, so the whole library is graspable at once. The explicit rule that patterns stay secondary, stated next to the samples, which keeps a strong asset from overwhelming layouts.

Reuse notes

A reusable index page for a pattern or texture library in any brand guideline. The equal-swatch grid with corner labels is a clean documentation pattern. Pairs with the colour, alignment, scaling, use and misuse pages that follow. The four specific patterns are F1's chequered-flag derivations; substitute your own motifs.
