Bold Red Plus Signs Bright Green Bookmark

Did you know?

The plus sign, or cross motif, is one of the oldest geometric symbols in human decoration, appearing across cultures from ancient textiles to medieval heraldry to modernist design. Here, the simple four-armed cross repeats in a stacked vertical arrangement, creating a sense of orderly rhythm—a fundamental principle of ornamental pattern-making where a single unit multiplies to suggest infinity. The addition of the blue diamond spacers between red crosses follows classical symmetry, where negative space and accent colors work together to guide the eye and prevent visual fatigue across a repeating surface.
