For several months I have been exploring letter tessellations in the an effort to design maze books. The first result was
Puzzling Typography: Mazes with Letter Tessellations.
Now a second result, a byproduct of the maze books, is also available on Amazon,
The Tessellating Alphabet Coloring Book.
The Tessellating Alphabet Coloring Book features many of the letter tessellations that were used in
Puzzling Typography but also includes many new shapes and patterns, such a the S shape above and the pattern below for the letter R, one of the most difficult letters to tessellate.
Some people who find letter tessellations interesting may not like them in the form of mazes. This books is one attempt to appeal to these people by presenting the tessellations in a different way. With 106 different tessellation patterns, it is one of the largest collections of letter tessellations available.
The Tessellating Alphabet Coloring Book is 105 pages long and has at least one page devoted to each letter. For some letters there are many pages. (More means more than six.) Letters F and L are especially well represented.
There are other projects in the pipeline and two of them are almost completed. Stay tuned.
Hi Robert, I am a big fan of maze books. I like your books very much. However, I have to get your books imported to India which cost very high. Hope you release your books in India too or sell them as e-books. As you rightly pointed, maze books don't sell much. Hope these too become popular as they are no less amazing than puzzle books. BTW, I am an adult and I still find your mazes interesting though they are meant for kids. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great books.
