The design process began by redrawing selected belt patterns by hand to better understand their structure and visual rhythm. This manual study allowed close observation of recurring motifs and proportions.
Next, the patterns were simplified into basic shapes and lines to identify common visual elements. Reducing the ornaments to their essential geometry helped establish a consistent formal language that later guided the development of the typeface.
