## Description

Take any form you choose and repeat it at regular intervals, and, just as repetitive sounds produce rhythm or cadence, you have pattern. However, the use of pattern in design is no haphazard matter, but a disciplined activity in which the artists must impose a pleasing order and structure on the whole to achieve an aesthetically satisfying end product. This classic guide, revised and expanded by Amor Fenn three decades after its publication, teaches artists to do just that. Surveying a multitude of applications, from architectural detail to decorative textile printing and typographic patterns, Day provides insight into the geometric foundations of all repeating patterns, and treats in a practical way the anatomy, planning, and evolution of repeated ornament. He demonstrates the extent to which pattern is the essence of the ornamental arts, and offers a wealth of technical information for the student and designer. Generously illustrated with more than 270 designs ranging from old Japanese, Persian, and Arabian patterns to early 20th-century motifs, Pattern Design will stimulate the imaginations and advance the skills of novices and experts alike.

Review: Pithy, practical, instructive illustrations - This book is quite old in terms of it's publishing dates, which makes me assume that it is a classic in the genre. I forget if I was referred to this book by a friend in textiles or if I found it myself. Regardless, it seems to cover the gamut of all repeat patterns and how to make them with visual instructions
Review: Brilliant - Absolutely fabulous book. Essential for surface pattern designers.

Absolutely fabulous book. Essential for surface pattern designers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ a definite go-to book
*by S***T on June 13, 2017*

I cannot say enough good things about this book. It is continually inspiring. And when I need to learn something new, it does not fail to teach. Yes, it was written over a 100 years ago, but pattern is pattern. There are only so many ways to cover a two-dimensional surface with motifs or lines, and instructions for so doing are excellent. I have had difficulty only with using them for making repeats of abstract paintings, a topic only arising a number of years after Mr. Day's classes ceased. I suspect that, had he encountered such, there would have been elegant instructions for accomplishing the task. I am so glad Dover is keeping this classic in print.
