Multiples

I’m drawn to multiples in design. I love wallpaper with its often repeating patterns, I love blocks of stamps, I was drawn to the multiple prints at the Photography museum and today at the flea market saw multiples again in the repeating pattern of Christmas Trees from turn of the century Germany scrapbooking paper. I don’t see all the edges of this yet — I used to just think I was into wallpaper — but I’m beginning to think that its more about multiples in design. Just a note to myself (images to follow) and keep trying to identify what holds my attention about multiples and how to apply it to my business and art.
