It includes 200 original black-and-white line drawings and 50 colour images. The modular nature of patterns is explored and attention is focused on the vast diversity of pattern types which can emerge from a small inventory of components. The use of different pattern classes across cultural contexts is explored. It explains how grid forms, derived from well-known tiling classes, may be employed as frameworks to assist with pattern construction"--
