Pattern Design

Applications & Variations

autor: Lou Adrea Savoir

wydawnictwo: Rockport

When considering patterns, a worn-out but ever-resurfacing "form vs content" dichotomy arises. Patterns sometimes get relegated to the rank of easy, almost sinful satisfaction. They have gone in and out of style for centuries, but the fascination they exert never falters. By presenting patterns together with their applications, "Pattern Design" introduces a diverse selection of beautiful motifs as well as the innovative, often witty ways they are used.

The book features 113 distinct patterns, 100 of which are included on interactive CD-Rom packaged with the book.
