Islamic Biomorphic Patterns: Creating Motifs Inspired by the Natural World

This is a really good book! It has very clear and concise step-by-step instructions on creating some lovely biomorphic patterns. I highly recommend it.

I just received this book and it is gorgeous. Very high quality. The projects that are presented, with exact directions to follow, are so stunning I can't wait to get started. Brava.

Beautiful book but that’s it about itI tried to follow through and was getting tired with the triangle Grid. All you see from your grid would be a six pointed stars which was not a requirement for all the patterns+ the historical context was not accurate and contained biasesFinally, I didn’t appreciate the « cold », « secular » approach to it. It is a Islamic art simply because its source is Islamic spirituality whether it is in Morocco or in IndiaLabelling it in any other way as pretends the author of this book is ignorant at best and misleading at worseThe sacred component is definitely missing which leaves you with a boring geometry helpbook (and I am a geometry enthousiast !!)
