RESEARCH- How designers use patterning techniques in their work.

Patterns are always widely used in different territories of art, artists and designers use different material to product the outcomes.
Such as “Noriko Ambe” ,she  is an artist who draws/cuts on paper, atlas and sketch book which has many layers. The works are named Linear-Actions to express the time and space.
she expressed a new concept by cutting the pre-existing patterns and information in books so as to alter them.

Another example，Chris Bosse is a German-born architect, resident in Sydney in Australia. He was a key designer of the Beijing National Aquatics Centre that was built for the 2008 Summer Olympics. Educated in Germany and Switzerland, he worked with several high-profile European architects before moving to Sydney.

“Inspired by the geometrical order of a snowflake and the aerodynamics of a Formula 1 racing car, the tower encapsulates speed, fluid dynamics, future technology and natural patterns of organization”.

Sandra Backlund, a designer who turns knitted clothing into a piece of art. Mostly famous for her three-dimensional collage knitting perhaps it would be more appropriate to define her as a sculptor rather than a fashion designer. Her desire to discover different materials and techniques as well as her passion for quality and tradition make Sandra’s clothes one of a kind. Her artistic skills transform knitwear to unique fascinating fashion items.
