Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Repeat patterns have been used in ornament, decoration and design since the beginning of civilization. Their use not only links cultures across the globe, but also forms a bridge between the natural and the manmade worlds. This innovative and inspiring volume is the key to understanding the most basic and versatile creative tool of all - a design composed of one or more motifs, multiplied and arranged in orderly sequence.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 191-192).
