Azulejo Rosettes
Scalloped flowers and curved diamonds grow from a repeating ornamental field. Nested ink lines give each tile a delicately engraved rhythm.
About this pattern
Portuguese azulejo-inspired ornament · polar curves and square symmetry
An original geometric interpretation of repeating Portuguese tile ornament. Fourfold or eightfold polar curves repeat on a square lattice. A second, smaller flower occupies each junction. Motion changes the curvature together across the entire field, preserving its repeating boundaries.
