Pd Criteria
The document discusses various types of design elements and patterns for fabric and wallpaper including line, shape, rhythm, balance, emphasis, and negative space. It provides examples of specific patterns like tossed layout, half drop, botanical, and damask and describes considerations for designing textiles like repeat size, scale, color placement, and printing method. Planning a design involves refining pencil drawings, mapping colors, and considering the end use and room dimensions.
