Cutting Mat Live
A designer's cutting mat, read as a threat model: rulers, a taint path, trust boundaries and tape.
The self-healing mat on every design desk.
Cybersecurity, typeset.
Drawn with the tools of print. Every mark on a sheet stands for something real: a taint path, a trust boundary, a finding. Everything means something.
Read the mat.
The self-healing cutting mat on a designer's desk, printed as a threat model. Pick a line from the key to find its mark on the sheet.
Four inks, three grounds each.
Each ink comes from the history of print and computing, and each ground is a real material. All twelve are contrast-checked against WCAG and simulated for protan, deutan and tritan vision. Choose one to use it in the studio.
Four series are on press.
Each borrows a layout from graphic design and gives every element on it a security meaning.
Specimen Live
A foundry type specimen. The field's core primitive is set as a typeface, with the one unhandled case left as an empty box.
Caslon's specimen broadside, 1734.
Galley Proof Live
Security review as proofreading. Each finding gets the proofreader's mark that matches the fix; the advisory is an errata slip.
Proofreaders' marks, Chicago Manual of Style, 1906.
Catalog Card Live
Every concept catalogued like a book: a call number from a real framework, one typed definition, a correction pencilled above.
Dewey's Library Bureau cards, 1870s.
