A Versatile Resource for Sacred Geometry!,
By
This review is from: Projective Ornament (Paperback)
This book is a feast for the eyes and joy for the hands of those who would take advantage of the secrets within! It introduces the reader to the simple concepts of projective geometry and set theory as it has been applied to such devices as magic squares and Celtic knotwork. Beyond that, it is illustrated with fantastic line drawings in Art Nouveau style showing how these aesthetic sources can be applied not just to architecture, but costume and ornament design. Almost a century old since its first printing but still very timeless and relevant. Bragdon's writing shows exuberance tempered with a respect for doing the craft right in an almost religious aspect. Very proud to have this in my collection!
