The exquisite geometric patterns that adorn buildings inside and out across the Islamic world all have an underlying geometry, ranging from the serenely simple to the extraordinarily complex. Presented here are 48 Islamic patterns, from locations such as Samarkland, Delhi, Fez, Isfahan and Cairo, and 48 loose-leaf sheets, each lightly printed with the geometry of the corresponding featured design.
Creative, inventive and fun, this book will give you the skills needed to produce a wide range of Islamic patterns of varying complexity, and then to complete them in colours of your own choice.
