Geometric Patterns Require Group Repetition to Be Valid

An Art Deco room where a motif appears repeatedly. The same geometric motif appears three or more times in the space but at different scales: a fan shape appears on a mirror frame, then on the inlay of a cabinet door, and again on a corner of a rug. Because of its repetition, it becomes the language of this room rather than a single decoration. There are no other patterns besides this motif. Avoid: using multiple different geometric motifs in the same space, having the motif appear only once making it isolated, having repetitions at exactly the same scale making it mechanical, or adding decorative patterns unrelated to the motif.

一個母題重複出現的裝飾藝術房間。同一個幾何在空間裡出現三次以上但尺度不同:一個扇形出現在鏡框上、又出現在櫃門的鑲嵌上、再出現在地毯的一角。因為重複,它成為這個房間的語言而不是單一的裝飾。除了這個母題之外沒有其他圖案。避免:在同一空間使用多種不同的幾何母題、讓母題只出現一次變成孤立、讓重複的尺度完全相同顯得機械、加入與母題無關的裝飾圖案。
