Arranged thematically, it is unique among pattern books, as it includes examples not only of surface pattern but also of three-dimensional ornamentation and embellishment.0Two-dimensional pattern is ubiquitous, no matter what the age of an object or where it was created. From Japanese kimono and William Morris fabrics to Chinese porcelain and contemporary furniture, such works reveal humanity's unceasing desire to combine pattern with design. Just as prevalent are examples of three-dimensional embellishments that go far beyond the requirements of their practical use: an acrylic handbag has a carved motif of insects and wildflowers, a cobalt-blue pottery ewer has a dragon's-head spout and an early 19th-century fruit plate is shaped like a seashell.0Designers working today are as fascinated and inspired by pattern and ornament as they have always been. This expertly compiled selection will appeal to designers, artists, illustrators and other creatives from all disciplines as well as anyone interested in visual and material culture.0In association with the Victoria and Albert Museum." -- publisher's description 505 0 $a Introduction -- Patterning in practice -- Plants -- Animals -- Earth & the universe -- Abstract patterns. 650 0 $a Decoration and ornament. 650 0 $a Repetitive patterns (Decorative arts) 650 7 $a Decoration and ornament. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00889145 650 7 $a Repetitive patterns (Decorative arts) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01094815 710 2 $a Victoria and Albert Museum. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117023238.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=24EB19D278F711ECAF30597D2FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
