Author's note

Tapis by Monica Cathlin Mulyadi is a free decorative display font built around dramatic shifts between hairline outlines and solid vertical strokes. Broad upright sections carry repeated cutout zigzags, giving the letters a woven, patterned quality. Angular turns and small square spirals sharpen the otherwise tall, open silhouettes.

Textile patterns and geometric ornament make this lettering especially relevant to fashion branding and craft-focused events. Poster titles and album artwork suit the same decorative approach. On packaging, the alphabet can become part of the illustration itself, with its zigzag bands and spiral details functioning like graphic borders, trims, or embroidered motifs.
