Thai Geometric Patterns
In Thailand, as in many other countries and cultures, one can find traditional patterns based on geometric constructions. The collection of patterns displayed in this page was gathered a few years ago by Fred Szabo and Mirek Majewski in Chiang Mai. All presented here patterns are fragments of traditional Thai fabrics. These fabrics were hand woven in Thai villages. Most of these designs are very old. Each of these examples displays quite nice and interesting geometric pattern - usually it is a combination of interlaced rhombi, squares, triangles, and hornbill-like shapes. Personally I believe that it is worth to do research of Thai traditional art and investigate geometry embedded into this art.
