Mönster Geometri / 2024
Pattern, geometry, and material surface. A study of how structure becomes texture, and how repetition builds a visual language all its own.

Research Phase
The project began with an investigation into geometric structure: how a simple repeated unit can shift in character depending on material, scale, and density. Lino printing became the primary tool for rapid iteration.

Placement Study
Testing the print across eight silhouettes, the work explored how different placements and densities change the energy of the garment. The grid shifts from controlled structure to something more disruptive when placed selectively against an asymmetric cut.

References
The moodboard drew together three tensions: the geometric grid of the woven fabric, the raw unpredictability of yarn and feather, and the photographic portrait as surface. The print needed to hold all of this.

MG
A print body that begins in geometry and arrives at texture. The final pattern is dense, saturated, and built from the accumulation of every test that came before it. Not a motif applied to cloth, but something that reads as cloth itself.
