| Summary | "Monograms & Ciphers" by A. A. Turbayne and Carlton Studio is a design publication written in the early 20th century. This book serves as a guide for artists and craftsmen interested in the creation of monograms and ciphers, emphasizing the principles of design and the aesthetic qualities of letter combinations. The primary focus is on presenting a wide variety of designs that can be adapted for practical use. The content of the book is systematically arranged into plates, each showcasing different combinations of letters and styles. Turbayne discusses the intricacies of creating monograms—letters that intertwine uniquely—versus ciphers, which are simpler letter arrangements. He explores various design principles, such as balance, readability, and style, offering insights into different letter forms including Roman, Gothic, cursive, and rustic. Each design is meant to be a working drawing, serving as a template for artists. By providing both aesthetic and practical guidance, the book aims to inspire creativity while ensuring functionality in crafted pieces, whether for personal use or commercial endeavors.
