The History of Patterns

Patterns originated as an architectural concept by Christopher Alexander as early as 1977

Patterns, an ancient and captivating art, have a rich history worldwide. They started with simple geometric shapes, evolving into intricate designs in Iran. India and China boast vibrant patterns used for clothing, architecture, and art. Egypt's patterns draw from nature.

Patterns exist all around us. We can find a pattern in the trees, in the window frames, on the floor, in our clothes, etc. One such real-life example is the zebra pattern.
