Pattern Inspiration – Kimberly

I found two patterns originating from Japan, both of which I really enjoy and would like to draw inspiration from. From the first one, I think the colors used are extremely interesting where the larger pieces somewhat blend into the background and the highlighted parts are all pretty much one color with details using the background color. For the textile on the right, I really enjoy the style of the work in which the there’s a lot of movement and select colors in the textile. It kind of draws your eyes around.

I found this digital pattern wallpaper where I really like to colors used where the accents pop but are covered by the harder to see bike patterns. As it’s titled “Flower Pedal” which I think is super cute and creative, I enjoyed the contrasts between all the details of the flowers and the wheels/gears of the bike.
