Pop was inspired by the bold and colourful fashion textiles of the sixties and seventies, particularly by their graphic simplicity, bold colours and shapes. The result is nonetheless a very modern font which makes it easy to create an endless variety of patterns of all styles, both retro and contemporary.’
