Birth statistics keepsake

Every detail of the day, set in type.

A birth stats poster turns the facts from the hospital card — name, date, time, weight, length, place — into a quiet, typeset record you can read from across the room and keep for good.

What it records

Six facts, given their own weight.

Include all of them or just the ones you have. Each is set in its own place in the composition, so the poster reads as a record — never a cramped list.

Name
Set largest, in the Fraunces display serif — the line your eye lands on first.
Date of birth
Written in full beneath the name, the way you would say it aloud.
Time of birth
In tabular figures so the numerals align — to the exact minute.
Weight
Kilograms or pounds, formatted the way it was written on the card.
Length
Centimetres or inches — and, on the figure style, drawn 1:1 to match.
Place
The city of birth; on the star map it also sets the sky’s horizon.

How the details are set

Typeset, not typed out.

  1. 01

    One voice on the page

    Display serif for the name, a single sans for the details. Two type families, a handful of sizes — restraint is what makes a record look considered rather than busy.

  2. 02

    Figures that line up

    Dates, times and measurements are set in tabular numerals, so columns of numbers align cleanly and the poster reads like a typeset certificate, not a form.

  3. 03

    Space doing the work

    Generous margins and a single hairline divider carry the eye. The facts are given room to breathe, which is what lets you read them from across the room.

Real renders

Questions

About the details.

Which birth statistics can the poster show?

Name, date of birth, time of birth, weight, length and place. You decide which to include — leave any field blank and the layout closes the gap so the poster stays balanced.

Can I show weight in pounds and length in inches?

Yes. Switch the units in the editor and the figures convert and re-label instantly — kilograms or pounds, centimetres or inches — formatted the way you would write them on a card.

Will the time read in 24-hour or 12-hour format?

You type the time and it is set cleanly beneath the date. The poster sets it in tabular figures so the numerals line up neatly, whichever convention you use.

What if I don’t know the exact time or weight?

Include only what you have. A stats poster with just the name, date and length still reads as a complete, considered record — the type is sized to fill the space gracefully either way.

Can I add the place or hospital name?

Yes. Add the city or place of birth and it sits with the other details. On the star-map style it also anchors the sky to that location’s real horizon.

Set their details in type.

Type the name, date, time, weight, length and place — the layout sets them cleanly and hands you a print-ready PDF.
