"As evocative patterns continue to adorn our surroundings and captivate our minds, the surging interest in pattern design - how they are inspired, produced and desired to function - is the product of a highly-evolved process. This book celebrates and explores the revival of this art form with patterns that go beyond their decorative function as they exceed our expectations with playful formations of thought-provoking depths and the creative ways they are applied. With over 250 full-page close-ups of patterns and photographs of their applications in all their exhilarating details, this book presents the most progressive currents in pattern design by the most sought-after designers and artists. In addition to organising thoughts on the stories, materials and processes behind their work, bringing greater attention and appreciation to the striking devils in the intricate detail of their innovative patterns. From the traditional with a contemporary twist, to the wholly experimental and abstract, this anthology of works is set to inspire your imagination into unfamiliar territories of pattern and surface design that stimulate our visual, mental and emotional scape."--Back cover
