Description
This comprehensive guide explains how to create repeat patterns in various contexts, from textiles and fashion to graphic design and architecture. By breaking down the process into simple steps and non-mathematical terminology, it provides a clear understanding of the underlying principles.
The book demonstrates that all repeat pattern-making comes from four fundamental operations: translation, rotation, reflection, and glide reflection. It also shows how to create seamless 'wallpaper repeats' by merging elements of the pattern into each other.
