Originally a place for Marie Perkins (Bowie Style) to keep a record of her textile design research, her creative blog www.printpattern.blogspot.co.uk now celebrates its latest book release with Print & Pattern Geometric.
Packed with over 460 full-colour illustrations, Print & Pattern Geometric includes a fascinating variety of designs, motifs and patterns made using geometric shapes. With designs reflecting a range of trends from mathematical and scientific to Scandinavian and Native American-inspired patterns, this book is set to become a useful reference for designers, illustrators and anyone with a love of shape and colour alike.
As well as visual images to delight, Print & Pattern Geometric also features interviews from the designers themselves who share the influences and inspiration behind their designs.
Print & Pattern Geometric (Bowie Style), published by Laurence King Publishing is available from all good book sellers now (rrp. £19.95).
