CAM Raleigh: Ornament and Pattern -- Reading
This article shows the importance of pattern, design, and ornament, how they are essential to our lives. The author talks about how Ornament and pattern are like form-based languages — the visual articulation of ideas. I agree with this when we see patterns and designs we make up our own meanings, they show us something new. The Latin root of the ornament- orno - means to equip, to adorn, and by extension, to honor.
