I’m a lifelong pattern lover and wrapping-paper collector, and I’ve been amassing snapshots of tile patterns over the years; lately I realized I’ve also been getting inspired by the images and patterns from Penguin Classics and Penguin Scores that I keep seeing all over the internet. Today I’m brainstorming some ideas for new card designs and I started collecting jpegs of Penguin cover patterns from around the internet… in the interest of documenting my inspiration I thought I’d collect some favorites here. If I manage to turn this into a great card design or pattern idea, of course I will post that here too!
