Coded Rhythms Boxed Note Card Set

Coded Rhythms — Boxed Note Card Set

Two columns of black bars move across a vivid orange field, repeating with small shifts in length and spacing. The pattern feels part musical score, part visual code: steady enough to suggest order, yet varied enough to create a lively rhythm. Its simplicity makes a strong impression and leaves room for the recipient to find their own meaning in the design.

Printed on quality paper with a smooth, substantial feel, each card is comfortable to hold and write on. The bold artwork makes an everyday message feel considered—and gives the recipient a card worth keeping.

The story behind the colors

Orange and black have a long association with Princeton: orange was first recorded in use by Princeton students in 1867, and the University formally adopted orange and black in 1896. Coded Rhythms gives the familiar palette a contemporary graphic language through repetition, spacing, and variation.
