Pattern Books: Inspiration

As well as looking at websites, I also took inspirations from various books that focused on patterns as their content. I felt this helped me further understand how to put a pattern together.

This book that I looked was useful for text rather than visual inspiration. It went into the background of patterns and prints, which was helpful to look through. It was said in this book: “Pattern is powerful and transformative, adding rhythm and movement to the sensory experience of colour and texture.”
 Floral inspiration, Colourful, fun. Complimentary colours. Large images.

The below book was very useful for visual inspiration.

Magazine featuring various patterns. Many were inspired by foliage.
