Yet what all have in common is the regularity of repetition, that insistent rhythm that animates a flat surface with a sense of movement and vitality and gives it depth. Evident in the arrangement of petals on a flower head, the branching growth of stems and vines, the spirals of a seashell—pattern is inherent in the natural world that surrounds us. Powerful and transformative, pattern has an irrepressible joie de vivre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith more than 1,500 illustrations of patterns from all ages and cultures, \u003ci\u003ePattern Design\u003c\/i\u003e is a visual feast. This comprehensive compendium is arranged thematically according to type, with chapters on Flora, Fauna, Pictorial, Geometric and Abstract designs. These broad categories are supplemented by in-depth features highlighting the work of key designers from the rich history of pattern-making—such as William Morris, Sonia Delaunay, Charles and Ray Eames, Lucienne Day and Orla Kiely—along with sections detailing the characteristic motifs of key period styles, from Baroque to Art Deco.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson (Australia) Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46833419976940,"sku":"9780500021484","price":85.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780500021484.jpg?v=1758456751","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/pattern-design-9780500021484","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
