But once one turns four, the Teletubbieslose their naive charm and w are replaced by other kinds of repetition, including graphic patterns, which can be designed for wallpaper, fabric, tile, computer desktop backgrounds, wrapping paper . . . or simply for fun, without any practical use or particular format in mind. th de Practically all designers have succumbed, at one point or another, to the temptation of co designing a graphic pattern. Some have opted for simplicity, others for the obsessively te baroque; some for monochromatic patterns and others for colorful explosions. But the gr majority have devoted hours and hours of their time to taking different elements of a pat- pa tern and making a brainteaser of them, as it is easy to imagine Dutch artist M.C. Escher at doing in the 1950s. Escher, by the way, said that his work was much closer to the world of gr mathematics than to the world of art. pr JoJo Perhaps one of the ten reasons we are irresistibly attracted to patterns is their enter- bb :1:1 tainment potential: who hasn’t run their hands over the wallpaper of one of the rooms in 11 -0-0 00 22 22 55 T T itleitle :R:R PP -C-C uu ttinttin gg ## E E 11dd 77gg 55ee D D Pa Pa TP:22(PTP:22(Ptterns &tterns & ) Pag) Pag Textu Textu e:6e:6resres 6 ((RRaayy)) Text 000011--000077__0000222255 1111//2211//0077 88::0069 AAMM PPaaggee 77 op their home hoping to find (to no avail, of course) a discordant element in the pattern? And en who hasn’t sought out its limits—that point where the motif ends and connects all over again nd with its beginning? ed or That patterns are playful and have more to do with mathematics than design is some- thing that could easily be said by any of the eighty-three designers, artists, and graphic design studios featured in this book. The over 250 patterns included here form a detailed of collection of the latest trends in the field of graphic design patterns. New styles and new ly techniques form an unprecedented visual feast for the eyes, which will interest not only he graphic designers, but also readers who are fascinated by the almost hypnotic beauty of t- patterns that repeat themselves into infinity. After all, what is a graphic pattern but an er attempt to imitate, to our best capability, the fractals of nature? A good deal of the of graphic patterns in this book have been published in other formats, but many are printed here for the very first time. r- in & Textures& TexturesP) Page:7P) Page:7 atterns atterns DTP:22(DTP:22( e Pe P5 5 gg77 dd11 EE## g g nn uttiutti CC P-P- RR e:e: TitlTitl 5 5 22 22 00 00 1-1- 11 b:b: oo JJ 7 ((RRaayy)) Text 000088--004433__0000222255 1111//2211//0077 99::0177 AAMM PPaaggee 88 JoJo bb :1:1 11 -0-0 00 22 22 55 T T itleitle :R:R PP -C-C uu ttinttin gg ## E E 11dd 77gg 55ee DTP:22(P DTP:22(P Patterns & Patterns & DYaoytos iO Kbusseasmsiaon ) Page:8) Page:8 Textures Textures www.yayoi-kusama.jp 8 ((RRaayy)) Text 000088--004433__0000222255 1111//2211//0077 99::0177 AAMM PPaaggee 99 uresuresge:9ge:9 & Text& TextP) PaP) Pa atterns atterns DTP:22(DTP:22( e Pe P5 5 gg77 dd11 EE## g g nn uttiutti CC P-P- RR e:e: Untitled TitlTitl 5 5 22 Hello Hello 0202 00 1-1- 11 www.hellohello.name b:b: oo JJ 9 ((RRaayy)) Text 000088--004433__0000222255 1111//2211//0077 99::0177 AAMM PPaaggee 1100 JoJo bb :1:1 11 -0-0 00 22 22 55 T T itleitle :R:R PP -C-C uu ttinttin #1#1g Eg E 77dd 55gg D De Pe P TP:22(P) Page:10TP:22(P) Page:10atterns & Texturesatterns & Textures 1Ew9mw5iw7l .Ke omzialkkozak.com 10 ((RRaayy)) Text
