Books like Islamic Geometric Design by Eric Broug


Islamic geometric designs are celebrated worldwide for their beauty and intricacy, yet few grasp their underlying logic. Eric Broug’s illustrated volume dissects these patterns within their historical and physical contexts, showing how craftsmen built elaborate decorations using basic tools and no advanced mathematics. By outlining the construction of straight‑line and circle‑based elements placed on grids, then repeated and varied, Broug demonstrates how limitless arrays of stunning patterns emerge. Dedicated chapters cover the principal families—fourfold, fivefold, and sixfold—as well as the more complex combined patterns. Readers can follow the design processes step by step and even learn to reproduce and invent geometric motifs themselves.
