System Process Form is also published as a special edition which features unique one-off cover designs.

System Process Form is structured in three sections.

Section 1 serves as the book’s core database, cataloguing the eight type family groups — 23 typefaces and 198 individual fonts — that constitute the Two type system. Revealing the logic and the potent visual opportunities of the system.

Section 2 comprises a selection of two-layer combinations where pairs of modular glyphs have been overprinted either by choice or by chance to generate a series of fundamental hybrid forms.

Section 3 constitutes the main body of the book, with monochrome and multicoloured glyph combinations interacting in two, three or more calibrated layers. These integrated forms are structured within themed groups that are organised both algorithmically and by means of experimentation, play, observation and judgement.

The published examples, chosen for their distinctively abstract and striking appearance, represent only a tiny fraction of the total number of hybrid compositions generated in the making of System Process Form.

To allow readers to develop their own designs, formulae are given for all glyph combinations shown throughout the book, specifying the fonts, sizes, tracking, line spacing and offsets that have been employed.
